Andre Gray’s spot-kick in the 93rd-minute cancelled out Shkodran Mustafi's first goal for Arsenal as the Gunners were left hanging on after Granit Xhaka’s second-half dismissal.

   But Burnley’s late fightback eventually came to nothing as, for the second time this season, Arsenal grabbed the points in controversial style with virtually the last touch of the game to secure the win that lifted them to second place in the Premier League.

   Perhaps fittingly for his latest landmark, Dyche was able to stick with a winning formula as he selected the same side that started last Saturday’s Premier League win over Southampton.

   With Johann Berg Gudmundsson and Scott Arfield not ready to return, there was also no change to the substitutes’ bench as the Clarets went in pursuit of a first away league win.

   The scale of the task was underlined by Arsenal’s record at the Emirates Stadium where they hadn’t lost since the opening game of the season.

   And with the Gunners seeking a fifth successive home league win, manager Arsene Wenger also said ‘same again’ as he named the side that had won 4-0 at Swansea in their last outing.

   Eyeing the chance to move above Liverpool and Tottenham and within sight of Chelsea at the top of the table, Wenger’s side inevitably played with the purpose and confidence of potential title challengers.

   Their slick passing and movement around the penalty area made it an early test of concentration for the Clarets on the occasions they were forced to defend deep and in numbers.

   But it was an examination they came through impressively with Tom Heaton’s only save of the opening half hour a diving effort low to his right to keep out a curling 30-yarder from Mesut Ozil before the Clarets’ skipper made a more routine stop to hold a shot from top scorer Alexis Sanchez, who then curled an effort just wide moments before the break.

   The Clarets saw their share of possession dwindle as the opening half went on.
