It's the business end of the season for Burnley and Newcastle as a handful of games remain. Both teams are fighting their own respective battle heading into this game, for the hosts, they are fighting to stay in the Premier League, and for the Magpies, they need to finish in the top six if they want to play in Europe next season. However, the stats are in favour of the away side. Newcastle come into this tie having not lost to Burnley since 2019, however, the Clarets are undefeated in three games and have not lost at Turf Moor in two months. It's all to play for in this game, a win today for the hosts could see them leave the relegation zone, with Nottingham Forest, who currently sit in 17th, also kicking off at 3pm.
