Dyche admits Burnley massive underdogs going to Arsenal

Burnley boss Sean Dyche admits they're massive underdogs going to Arsenal.

Dyche says Burnley will need a little help from Lady Luck if they are to end their woeful record against Arsenal this weekend.

Burnley go to The Emirates this weekend and have not beaten Arsenal in a league game in 45 years, losing their last nine matches against the north London side.

“Decisions have played a part," Dyche said.

“You need the rub of a green and might need a decision. It might be a bit more measured with VAR and you certainly won't have had the decisions we have had go against us but when it comes down to it you have to perform

“It's a broken record - when it comes down to it against the top sides you gotta perform if you don't perform you rarely get anything against a top side. You have to perform as a minimum."
