Sean Dyche: 'Arsenal pose a big challenge'

Burnley manager Sean Dyche has admitted that his team will have to replicate their recent performances against the Premier League's top sides when they host Arsenal on Saturday evening.

The Clarets have earned results against Chelsea, Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur, but Dyche has acknowledged that his players face a "big challenge" against the form team in the top flight.

The 43-year-old told reporters: "I'm happy with the way the team is operating at the moment but it's a big challenge against a good side.

"Our mental strength has been evident all season and we've found clarity before on big occasions, and we will look for that again versus Arsenal."

Burnley currently sit two points adrift of safety in the Premier League table.
