- Burnley hold Arsenal to a goalless draw at the Emirates Stadium as the Gunners winless run continues
- Despite dominating the game, Arsenal found it difficult to break a very disciplined Burnley team
- Arsenal are now two points behind fourth-placed Manchester United having played a game more
Arsenal were held to a goalless draw by Burnley at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, January 23, as they lost ground in the race for the top four.
The Gunners dominated the game but found it difficult to break a Burnley side who had not played a Premier League fixture in three weeks due to Covid postponements.
Despite having several chances to win the game Arsenal will only have themselves to blame as they struggled to convert their chances.
Alexandre Lacazette had the Gunners best chance of the game but he could only flash his effort high from an Emile Smith Rowe cut-back.
With the result, Arsenal made it five games without a win in all competitions since the start of the new year. They will also end the month of January without a win.
They are now two points behind fourth-placed Manchester United having played a game more.
