Relegation threatens Burnley who should definitely be looking for some points here. For Newcastle United most of the excitement is over as they will neither be promoted or relegated this season.

There have been little to rest for the host team, as they had a Premier League fixture only three days ago. That game was an away game at Aston Villa, so at least Burnley are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
