Stoke bright and bustling in these early stages. Defeat won't seal their fate but it will make their task of remaining in the Premier League very tough. Mame Biram Diouf attempts to chase a ball into the box but is beaten to it by Nick Pope.

We're under way in both games.

Here's Arsene Wenger now, straight into his seat in the dugout. The Frenchman clearly keen not to have a big fuss made following the announcement on Friday that he will step down at the end of the season.

There is an air of almost surreal normality as Emirates Stadium basks in the April sunshine.

No pomp or circumstance, no visible signs that the most significant decision in the club's recent history has just been reached.

It may all change when Arsene Wenger makes his first appearance in the technical area - but this is all very "life goes on" at the moment.

Cheers and high-fives with Gunnersaurus as Arsene Wenger entered the Emirates a little earlier.

Mark Lawrenson: "Burnley are probably not the team you want to be playing when you are desperate for points.

"Stoke are very short in attack and there is a reason why they have only scored 31 league goals so far in 34 matches."

Prediction: 1-1

Stephen Warnock
Ex-Liverpool defender on BBC MOTD Extra

Arsenal have fallen behind Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, Spurs. They can’t attract top managers from within the league like Barcelona and Bayern did.

They need a manager who can tempt players that want to play for that manager like Jose Mourinho did when he went to United. For me I would go for Diego Simeone. He has talked about leaving, has signed contract but said he might not see it out. I think he is a great candidate for the job

Darren Bent
Burton Albion striker on BBC MOTD 2 Extra

I think Ancelotti has to be the one for the Arsenal job. He has won trophies, it might not be long term but he knows the Premier League. He has won the league with Chelsea, won the Champions League and for me the man most suited to the job at the moment.

Mark Lawrenson: "It is a big ask for West Ham to go to the Emirates Stadium and get anything there - on home form alone, Arsenal are third in the table, just two points behind Manchester City."

Prediction: 2-0

Ben: Gilberto has to be in that team somewhere...

Luke: Gilberto instead of Fabregas all day long. Done all the dog work and was profoundly underrated. World Class holding midfielder.
