– Martin Odegaard scored the only goal of the game as Arsenal continued their recovery from a poor start to the season with a 1-0 win at Burnley.
– The Gunners started the Premier League campaign with three defeats, their worst start since 1954, but back-to-back 1-0 wins, following last week’s victory over Norwich, has seen Mikel Arteta’s side move away from the foot of the table.
