With Liverpool hosting Watford at lunchtime, Pep Guardiola’s visitors will expect to kick off this game second in the table. After dropping points at St Mary’s and Selhurst Park, City could use a comfortable afternoon before a two-legged Champions League clash with Atlético Madrid and battles with Liverpool in the league and FA Cup. Burnley may also have one eye on upcoming games against Everton and Norwich, but Sean Dyche is not writing this game off. “You’ve got to try and get points from everywhere,” says the Burnley manager. “We’ve beaten these sides in the past, but it’s just tougher than the rest.” Niall McVeigh
