Burnley Premier League guide: The latest fixtures, results, team news and Burnley odds
Burnley secured a crucial point away at Aston Villa in midweek, with Ashley Barnes’ penalty enough to get a draw. Wout Weghorst almost nicked all three points with a late chance but his close-range shot was blocked by the outstretched leg of Tyrone Mings.
As frustrating as that moment was, caretaker manager Michael Jackson will be pleased to have kept his team’s destiny in his own hands. The Clarets are level on points with Leeds but with a significantly better goal difference, meaning that a win will guarantee survival and they could still stay up even with a draw or a defeat.
We’ve taken a look at all you need to know about Burnley – from their next league game, to the latest Burnley betting odds.
When is the next Burnley Premier League fixture?
Burnley’s final game of the season is against Newcastle United at Turf Moor, kicking off at 16:00 on Sunday. The visitors are in great form but the Clarets will be buoyed by knowing they will have a vociferous home crowd backing them all the way in this one.
Burnley will be out for revenge after losing 1-0 to the Magpies back in December, although their form has picked up significantly in the last few months. After struggling for much of the season, the Clarets have now won three of their last four home league games – as many as in their previous 26 at Turf Moor.
What are the odds that Burnley win their next game?
Burnley are 11/8 to defeat Newcastle on Sunday, ending a three-match losing run to the Magpies in the process. Newcastle have lost four of their last five on the road, conceding five times in each of their last two away defeats.
Maxwel Cornet has scored more Premier League goals at Turf Moor than any other Burnley player this season. The Ivorian winger has been a superb signing for the Clarets and is 4/1 to open the scoring against Newcastle.
Newcastle hold the dubious distinction of having received more red cards on the final day of the Premier League season than any other side, with seven shown so far. If the referee is flashing a red again on Sunday, it may well be as a result of awarding a penalty – we have the first goal method as a penalty kick at 5/1, and the first goal to come from a free-kick at 14/1.

What is the latest Burnley injury and transfer news?
Burnley are without Matej Vydra and Matthew Lowton will now be suspended for the final game after his red card against Aston Villa. However, James Tarkowski is back, and Jay Rodriguez has an outside chance of being involved. Maxwel Cornet has been a hugely important player for the Clarets this season and has returned to full fitness at the perfect time.
Who are Burnley’s key players?
Goalkeeper Nick Pope is a key part of the Clarets squad, alongside defenders Ben Mee and James Tarkowski. Meanwhile, Maxwel Cornet’s start to life in Lancashire has been impressive, scoring four in five league games. January signing Wout Weghorst is starting to find his feet at the Turf Moor club.

What are the Burnley odds to avoid relegation from the Premier League?
Burnley are 1/2 favourites to avoid relegation from the Premier League following their draw at Aston Villa. The Clarets will have been disappointed to learn of Everton’s fightback that secured the Merseyside club’s survival but know that it’s in their hands heading into a potentially-nervy finale Sunday.
Who is the manager of Burnley?
Sean Dyche’s nine-and-a-half year reign came to an end over Easter following the defeat to Norwich City. In his place are a caretaker manager team comprising Under-23s manager Michael Jackson, club captain Ben Mee, academy director Paul Jenkins and Under-23 coach Connor King. Burnley are likely to announce a permanent manager before too long, however, and Chris Wilder, Vincent Kompany and Wayne Rooney are among the favourites.
Where is Burnley’s stadium?
Burnley play at the 21,944-capacity Turf Moor in Burnley, Lancashire, having played their home games there since 1883. It is the second-longest continuously used stadium in English professional football.
