Burnley Form

Burnley have gone down 1-0 to Manchester United and West Ham of late, but they pulled off the shock of the season so far with a 1-0 success at Liverpool. Ashley Barnes scored a late penalty to seal the points.

The Clarets followed that huge result up with a 3-0 victory at Fulham in the FA Cup. Jay Rodriguez scored a brace and assisted Kevin Long for the third goal.

Sean Dyche’s charges returned to Premier League action with a 3-2 home success over Aston Villa despite having 38% possession and 0.72-2.71 expected goals.

Burnley’s last outing was a miserable 2-0 loss at Chelsea in London. The Clarets were outplayed for the majority of the match, registering just 1 shot and 29% possession.

Burnley Injuries & Team News

Left back Charlie Taylor is doubtful alongside central midfielder Josh Brownhill who was injured against Aston Villa.

Striker Ashley Barnes played no part in Burnley's defeat at Chelsea and is also doubtful. Jay Rodriguez could come into the starting side here.

Manchester City Form

Manchester City are on a brilliant run, winning by 2+ goals in 9 of their last 11 fixtures across all competitions. They have kept a massively impressive 15 clean sheets in their last 19 outings.

Pep Guardiola’s team have won to nil in four straight home games, including 3-0 against Birmingham in the FA Cup. They followed that result up with a 1-0 win over Brighton, 4-0 success against Crystal Palace, and 2-0 triumph over Aston Villa.

City suffered a scare in the FA Cup before running out comfortable 3-1 victors at Cheltenham Town. They were 1-0 down in the 81st minute before late strikes from Phil Foden, Gabriel Jesus, and Ferran Torres saved Guardiola's blushes.

The Citizens then won 5-0 at West Bromwich Albion. It was a routine win with Ilkay Gundogan (2), João Cancelo, Riyad Mahrez, and Raheem Sterling finding the back of the net.

City’s last match was a 1-0 home success over Sheffield United. Some Ferran Torres magic created the goal for Gabriel Jesus in the 9th minute.

Manchester City Injuries & Team News

Manchester City are missing centre back Nathan Aké and midfielder Kevin De Bruyne due to injury.

Sergio Aguero is back in training after testing positive for COVID-19 but lacking match fitness.
