For much of the season, Burnley looked a near certainty to be relegated alongside Sheffield Utd. While the Blades have recently had their drop back to the Championship confirmed, Burnley are showing some serious spirit at the eleventh hour. The Clarets have lost just one of their previous six games, and last time out managed a precious point away against Man Utd. If Burnley are to avoid relegation, picking up maximum points in their remaining home game will be key.
However, Newcastle come into this match with something to fight for themselves. Despite being plagued by a practically unprecedented number of injuries this season (Fabian Schär the latest to be ruled out for the remainder of the season), the Magpies are still in with a shot of finishing in the EPL top six and securing European football for next season. However, Newcastle’s away form this season is poor, and they typically don’t do well on their travels.
Both teams still have plenty to fight for and will be viewing this game as a must-win. Expect a high-energy but cagey encounter as both sides need the three points. Don’t miss the Burnley vs Newcastle live stream, and we’ve got all the details you need to watch online down below.
