Burnley vs Manchester City – Match preview and team news Manchester City can seize the Premier League summit when they visit Turf Moor on Wednesday evening. Pep Guardiola’s side trail leaders Arsenal by three points ahead of this crucial fixture. A victory by more than two goals would lift the visitors into top spot.
City have found their stride lately following their recent triumph over the Gunners. They look to extend a run of 29 games unbeaten against newly promoted sides. Burnley, meanwhile, face the daunting prospect of relegation confirmation if results go against them this week.
