PREDICTION
Burnley are beginning to lose ground on the top six now after a run of results which has seen them fail to win any of their last half dozen Premier League outings. This Saturday sees them play host to a Manchester United side who have managed to cut the gap at the top of the table to 12 points. Their hopes of winning the title may seem unlikely, but a win this weekend would at least keep the club’s current momentum going.

MEMORABLE MEETING
Burnley’s first ever Premier League meeting with Manchester United was certainly a memorable one, especially for Robbie Blake. The forward was the man responsible for helping the Clarets to a historic victory at Turf Moor as he scored the only goal of the game.
