Arsenal are set to face Burnley in a match at Emirates Stadium. The aim is to move within touching distance of the Premier League title.
Emirates Stadium: A Fortress
Emirates Stadium has been a fortress this season with just two defeats on home soil in 2025/26.
Final Home Game Success
Arsenal have only lost their final home league game in one of the last 28 seasons, winning 23 of those.
They are unbeaten in the last 14 campaigns since a 2-1 loss to Aston Villa in 2010/11 and have also won all of the last six final home games of a league campaign.
Since the Premier League was founded in 1992/93, Arsenal have lost just four of 33, giving them the most successful final home game of the season record.
- Arsenal have collected an average of 2.33 points per game in that time.
- This is the highest of any side to have played in two or more seasons.
Wins have been the currency in recent seasons, seeing Arsenal sign off in N5 with a flourish.
Arsenal have won all of their final home games under Mikel Arteta, with Brighton in 2019 the last opponent to stop them winning, holding them to a 1-1 draw.
Burnley at the Emirates
Playing Burnley in their final home game of the season has happened only once in the Premier League era, coinciding with an historial occasion back in May 2018.
After 22 years, Arsene Wenger signed off as manager, bringing the curtain on an illustrious career in N5 with a 5-0 victory.
A Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang double, as well as goals from Alex Iwobi, Saed Kolasinac and Alexandre Lacazette ensured a perfect afternoon at Emirates Stadium.
On the final day of the 1952/53 season, having recovered from being a goal behind, a 3-1 success over the Lancastrians saw Arsenal and Preston North End finish with identical records of 21 wins, 12 draws and nine defeats.
In those days, goal average was needed to separate the sides, and Arsenal pipped Burnley’s local rivals to the championship by a mere 0.099 of a goal.
