After the win at Anfield, Arsenal are back in the north west for this midweek fixture against Burnley.

This game is as important as Liverpool to Arsenal and will probably be as difficult as Burnley have made their home something of a fortress. Paddy Power think that it'll be another three points for Arsenal and odds of 1/2 are good enough for you to back Arsenal outright, another win will keep the pressure on Chelsea and Manchester United and at the same time keep the chasing back away.

6/1 Burnley Win
3/1 Draw
1/2 Arsenal Win

This is the first time the two sides have met in The Premier League but last season the spoils were shared in cup competitions; Arsenal winning the FA Cup tie at The Emirates and Burnley winning The Carling Cup game at Turf Moor.

The season before that Arsenal won 2-0 at Turfmoor in another FA Cup match, things will be different tonight as Burnley have lost just once at home in the league this season. There last two home games have ended in 1-1 draws.

A Wednesday night in Burnley has all the hallmarks of an upset, Arsenal had better beware.

After his winning strike at Anfield made it two goals in two games for Andrey Arshavin, the lone striker for Arsenal, it's little surprise he's the 7/2 favourite to score first again tonight.

Maybe a touch short for some punters especially those seeking value so maybe look down at Nasri at 8/1 or Abou Diaby at 14/1 he's likely to start in place of the injured Denilson and has shown already this season that he knows where the goal is.

First Scorer
7/2 Arshvavin
5/1 Eduardo
 5/1 Vela
6/1 Walcott
13/2 Fabregas
8/1 Nasri
14/1 Diaby
16/1 Vermaelen
