Prediction Burnley vs Arsenal 2025/2026 season – Betting Tips for the Premier League on 01/11/2025

Match context: Turf Moor throws up a classic David vs Goliath

Burnley host table-toppers Arsenal at Turf Moor on 01/11/2025, and the contrast could not be starker. Chris Kavanagh will take charge as the Clarets look to arrest a run of mixed results that have them sitting 16th with 10 points from nine games. Burnley’s campaign has been a seesaw: convincing wins over Leeds and Wolverhampton punctuated by heavy defeats, most notably a 5-1 reverse at Manchester City. The stat-line underlines their fragility — 12 goals scored and 17 conceded — while home form has produced just five goals at Turf Moor this season.

Arsenal arrive in the north riding a wave. Top of the table with 22 points, they have accumulated seven league wins, a draw and a single loss in the opening nine fixtures, and their recent run is eye-catching: a sequence of victories across competitions, including a 2-0 success over Brighton in their most recent outing. Their defensive numbers stand out more than anything — just three goals conceded all season and six clean sheets — making them one of the stingiest units in England. Statistically Arsenal generate almost double the attacking volume of Burnley (total shots 133 vs 71; shots average 14.78 vs 7.89), and they win the corner and dangerous-attack battle hands down.

Tactical preview and historical edge

On paper Burnley will aim to make Turf Moor a difficult place, lean on set-piece chances and counter when Arsenal overcommit. But Arsenal’s balance between attack and defensive discipline makes them hard to break down: excellent numbers inside the box and efficient shot creation suggest they will control transitions and limit Burnley’s dangerous attacks. History also nudges bettors toward the visitors — a recent H2H in 2024 ended 0-5 in Arsenal’s favor, a reminder of the gulf that can appear on any given day.

For those weighing market selection, remember that the market has already priced Arsenal heavily — the leading bookmaker gives the away win at 1.28 (78.13% implied probability).

Betting suggestion (1X2) Based on form, defensive solidity and bookmaker pricing, the clearest value here is the away win in the 1X2 market: Arsenal to win. The odds of 1.28 reflect a strong favorite and the statistical matchup — Arsenal’s superior shot volume, clean-sheet record and recent winning streak — supports backing the visitors. Consider a measured stake size given the low odds; this is a confidence bet rather than a high-return punt.
