Because it is important
It will be City’s first game at the Etihad stadium in 2024 and in front of it will be a historic player of the club: Burnley manager Vincent Kompany. Therefore, it will be an important match for Josep Guardiola’s team, which will also have to face this sentimental component. Manchester City will seek to add three points to stay in the fight for first place against one of the teams that fights at the bottom of the table.

This is how they arrive
Manchester City has seven consecutive victories, a streak that began in the semi-finals of the Club World Cup. Furthermore, they haven’t lost at home in 20 games.

In the Premier they beat Newcastle in their previous match and are in second place, 5 points behind Liverpool but with one game less. Burnley have not won since December 23 and comes from drawing with Luton Town. It is in 19th place, in the relegation zone.
