Burnley start well in terms of possession, but Arsenal soon settle into their patient, probing stride.

7 mins - Steven Caldwell times his challenge to perfection to prevent Emmanuel Eboue cutting inside, clear on goal.

9 mins - Bacary Sagna floats a cross just over the angle.

11 mins - Kieran Gibbs volleys wide after a Carlos Vela corner.

15 mins - Joey Gudjonsson robs William Gallas, but with Martin Paterson looking to run in behind Johan Djourou, the Icelandic midfielder holds onto the ball too long and the chance is gone.

25 mins - Chris Eagles' mis-control allows Andrey Arshavin to find Vela, who gets his body in front of Gudjonsson and nutmegs Clarke Carlisle, before clipping the ball over Brian Jensen.

Arsenal 1, Burnley 0

36 mins - Alex Song clips a pass over Caldwell, but Carlisle prevents Vela going clear.

It's keep-ball from Arsenal now, as Burnley are dragged around by movement and vision.

40 mins - Chris McCann heads Lukasz Fabianski's goal kick on, and Caldwell has to intervene to stop Eduardo going through.

44 mins - Blake's corner hits Paterson and hits Sagna before eventually being cleared after a scramble.
