Arsene Wenger will take charge of his 606th and final Arsenal home match on Sunday, and recent history suggests there could be late drama.

The Gunners' last three meetings with Burnley have each been decided by stoppage-time winners. It is the only fixture in Premier League history to feature three consecutive such goals.

Encouragingly for Wenger, Arsenal have won them all.

On 2 October 2016, the day after Wenger's 20th anniversary for being appointed manager, Laurent Koscielny scored in the third minute of stoppage time for a 1-0 victory at Turf Moor.

Then, in January 2017, there was a double dose of late drama.

Burnley's Andre Gray equalised with a penalty in the third minute of stoppage time at Emirates Stadium, only for Alexis Sanchez to make it 2-1 with a spot-kick of his own five minutes later.

History repeated itself in November 2017 as Sanchez’s penalty in the second minute of stoppage time gave Arsenal another 1-0 win at Turf Moor.

With the club announcing plans to commemorate Wenger's career after the final whistle on Sunday, the fans may have to wait to pay their respects.
