ARSENAL boss Arsene Wenger insists every game in the Premier League is important because anyone can beat anyone.

Arsenal's best moments of the season 2016/17 so far

The Gunners are taking on Burnely this afternoon looking to close the gap to Chelsea at the top of the Premier League table.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger insists every game is crucial in the Premier League

But following the Reds defeat, Wenger admitted he wasn't taking Burnley lightly as anyone can beat anyone in the Premier League.

"Yes, the closer we get to the end of the season the more important every game becomes because you have fewer opportunities to come back," Wenger said.

"And that’s why of course the pressure on the teams is higher.

"I believe what has changed in the Premier League is that the few moments of opportunity the lower teams have in the table they are now capable of taking them. 

"That happens to us, to Liverpool, to everybody in the league."
