FULL TIME
It's two wins out of two for Arsenal, who now top the fledgling Premier League title. Although they were beaten, there'll be a lot Burnley can take from it, particularly an excellent, high-intensity first half.

Sokratis is booked for a foul near the halfway line. Arsenal break after clearing the free-kick, and make an utter mess of a two on one break.
90'
Another cracking save by Pope! Willock gets to the byline and cuts it back to Torreira, whose fierce shot is pushed away to safety. There will be a minimum of four additional minutes.
88'
Torreira's gone down for Arsenal here, barged over while trying to shield a loose ball for Leno to gather. He eventually bounces up, grimacing and holding his shoulder.
85'
Burnley's intensity just seems to have dipped since the first half. They're still getting forward though, and a whipped cross from Pieters just misses Barnes at the front post and Leno gathers.

Westwood clips it to Ben Mee on the left of the area, but he can't direct his header back across goal and Leno gathers.

Luiz concedes a free-kick after running into the back of Barnes. This is central and about 30 yards out, and might be a chance for Burnley.

Naitland-Miles goes on a long run down the right and finds Pepe. He opens up to shoot from outside of the area, but can only tickle a weak shot straight at Pope.
75'
A couple of quick free-kicks in Arsenal's half for Burnley, but they can't make anything from them.
