Burnley v Manchester City: match preview


This is the big one, or so Jürgen Klopp would have everyone believe, the Liverpool manager having more interest than most in talking up the possibility of Manchester City slipping up in the trickiest of their remaining fixtures. Two 5-0 City wins against Burnley already this season suggest otherwise, as does the 11-match winning run Pep Guardiola’s side take to Turf Moor. Burnley can be stubborn opponents, but City have more to play for. Paul Wilson
