Burnley vs Man City
Premier League 2018-19
Venue: Turf Moor
Date: Sunday, April 28, 2019
Kick-off: 2:05pm BST, today
Manchester City are three games away from Premier League glory as they prepare for a must-win match at Burnley on Sunday.
Pep Guardiola's champions won the Manchester derby in midweek to take a huge step towards the title, with City's celebrations showing just how important they felt that victory could be.
That 2-0 win sent City a point above Liverpool with three matches remaining, though Jurgen Klopp's side returned to the summit on Friday night with a 5-0 thrashing of relegated Huddersfield.
Despite City still being in the driving seat, the title race is far from sewn up: they now face a tough trip to meet a Clarets side who have all but secured their survival with three wins from their last four games, with the other result an impressive 2-2 draw at Chelsea.
