Burnley are one from bottom in the English Premier League and four points from safety. They host league leaders Manchester City and anything they can get from this fixture will be a bonus. Far more important is their next two matches against relegation rivals Everton and Norwich City. Burnley have lost their last three Premier League matches failing to score in any of them and conceding eight goals. They have won only three of their 27 league games this season and won just one of the last eight at home. Burnley must dread playing City having lost each of their last nine meetings. They've only scored one goal in those nine games and conceded 32.
Manchester City go into the weekend just a point clear of Liverpool. They are likely to be in second place though when this match begins. Liverpool host Watford earlier in the day and a draw will take them to the top of the Premier League. City are unbeaten in their last six league and cup games and without a defeat in their last 14 Premier League fixtures. Their next three fixtures after this game at Burnley are all at home, beginning with the clash against Liverpool on April 10. Back City to get an away win here and be ahead at both half and full time.
