The Clarets irritated Liverpool for 90 minutes here before giving away a silly penalty and will not let Arsenal’s reputation dictate their performance.Mikel Arteta has plenty of players in form and Arsenal’s record against Burnley is incredible, only losing once against them in the Premier League, and never at Turf Moor. Only Liverpool have won in the league against Burnley on their own patch, proving that it’s a very difficult place to go. In recent years, the mentality at Arsenal has been questioned, so winning today would be proof of their fortitude this season.ShareFulham v Wolves: Confirmed lineupsFulham (4-2-3-1): Leno; Tete, Andersen, Bassey, Sessegnon; Iwobi, Berge; Wilson, King, Kevin; Jiménez.Subs: Lecomte, Muniz, Cairney, Traoré, Cuenca, Chukwueze, Lukic, Castagne, Smith Rowe.Wolves (3-4-2-1): Johnstone; Krejci, S Bueno, T Gomes; Hoever, Munetsi, Agbadou, H Bueno; Arias, Bellegarde; Strand Larsen.Subs: Sá, Møller Wolfe, André, J Gomes, Hwang, Arokodare, Mosquera, López, Tchatchoua.Fulham welcome back Joachim Andersen at centre-back and pack their team with attacking players.

The Premier League moves into its fourth month of the season and, after a fast start by Liverpool, it appears as though Arsenal have become the frontrunners for the title. They face Scott Parker’s Burnley this afternoon at Turf Moor and will go seven points clear at the top of the table with a win.Manchester United’s opening weeks of the campaign were tough going, the nadir that Carabao Cup defeat at Grimsby, but Ruben Amorim seems to have righted the ship and if they can beat Nottingham Forest at the City Ground today then they will go up to the giddy heights of second. Nuno, Ange, Sean Dyche will have something to say about that.Also on the agenda this afternoon is the mid-tabliest of mid-table battles as Crystal Palace (10th) host Brentford (11th), the all-German duel in the dugout at Brighton v Leeds and an almighty scrap at Craven Cottage as troubled Fulham face even-more-troubled Wolves.Alongside those five 3pm (GMT) kick-offs in the top flight, there’s a full programme in the Championship and the small matter of 32 games in the FA Cup first round.
