Burnley vs Man City: What time, what channel, predicted lineups, how can I watch online, team news, h2h, odds and more
Manchester City travel to Turf Moor to take on a rejuvenated Burnley as the champions seek to complete their league campaign by retaining the title.
Pep Guardiola’s men won 2-0 against Manchester United at Old Trafford on Wednesday, replacing Liverpool at the summit of the Premier League thanks to Bernardo Silva and Leroy Sane’s second-half strikes.
The result means that City now know that victories in their final three league games will bring about back-to-back league titles.
Burnley however have hit a rich vein of form, collecting 10 points from their last four top-flight matches, the latest of which came in a 2-2 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Monday night.
Sean Dyche’s men have also recorded wins against Wolves, Bournemouth and Cardiff to move them away from the relegation zone.

Prediction…
Burnley 1-3 Manchester City – The Manchester derby no doubt took a lot out of Pep Guardiola’s men, and having seized the initiative in the title race, it would be very unlike City to immediately throw it away despite their growing injury list. Sergio Aguero and Raheem Sterling were not at their scintillating best at Old Trafford, but expect them to cause plenty of problems for the Burnley defence.
