STAR FOOTBALL PREVIEW Weds: Burnley v Man City

Manchester City could move to the top of the Premier League table when they face Burnley on Wednesday night, while the Clarets could also see their relegation confirmed, writes JOE CITRONE.

After that seismic victory over Arsenal at the weekend, Pep Guardiola’s side now have the opportunity to leapfrog the Gunners at the top of the table.

They cannot afford to underestimate their opponents, who should be fighting for their lives, knowing that defeat would seal their relegation.

The reality is that, even if it’s not tonight, Burnley are highly likely to be returning to the Championship next season. Still, Scott Parker will be determined to see his side put up a fight and keep their survival hopes alive for as long as possible.

That said, I can’t see the Clarets upsetting the odds on Wednesday night, with City set to reclaim pole position in the race for the Premier League. At even money with starsports.bet, I am backing the away side to win to nil here.
