North London giants Arsenal have a remote chance of winning a Champions League spot via the league route ahead of their Premier League meeting with Burnley.

The Gunners can still pip North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur to the fourth and final spot for Champions League football next season but things have to go their way in an eight-goal swing.

Arsenal will have to beat by a big margin while hoping that Spurs fall to Everton at home.

The Gunners are better served focusing on winning the Europa League to secure a place in next season’s Champions League but anything can happen on the field of play just like Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur demonstrated on Tuesday night and Wednesday night in the Champions League respectively.

Arsenal have the momentum ahead of the Burnley game after qualification into the Europa League final was confirmed on Thursday night with a thumping win over Spanish giants Valencia.

The Gunners won 4-2 at the home of Valencia buoyed by the treble from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to secure a 7-3 aggregate victory over their Spanish opponents.

Aubameyang and Arsenal will now face London rivals Chelsea in the final later this month.

For the Burnley game, Arsenal are slight favourites at the odds of 2.15 for their victory according to Surebet247 while their hosts have winning odds of 3.15.

The possibility of a stalemate is at the odds of 3.75 according to Surebet247.
