There is so much at stake for both clubs at opposite ends of the table, with Burnley fighting for their lives at the bottom and Man City hoping to end the campaign as title winners.

Sitting 19th in the table, Scott Parker’s side know that defeat on Wednesday will confirm their relegation to the Championship, as the Clarets would find themselves 13 points adrift of safety with only 12 points left to play for.

While Burnley head into this contest on the back of a heavy 4-1 defeat at Nottingham Forest last weekend, Man City beat Arsenal 2-1 at the Etihad to seize control of a thrilling title race.

Pep Guardiola men still sit second in the table, but a victory at Turf Moor would see them climb above Arsenal to the Premier League summit on goal difference for the first time since August last year.
