Manchester City travel across Lancashire to face Burnley on Wednesday night, as they look to move back to the top of the Premier League table for the first time since August.
After a massive win against Arsenal on Sunday, City head into the final six games of their Premier League season, knowing that their fate is in their own hands. As things stand, City are three points behind Arsenal, with a game in hand, and just one goal behind on goal difference. With Pep Guardiola's side having scored more goals than Arsenal already, even a one-goal win at Turf Moor on Wednesday will put them on top of the table.
For Burnley, a loss in this game would put them further on the brink of relegation. It should only be a formality at the business end of the season, but Scott Parker's side will want to end their latest Premier League sojourn on a high.
Here's everything you need to know about Wednesday's game.

Talking Points:

However, the magnitude of the occasion and the intensity of the game is bound to have taken a toll on the players, both physically and mentally.
How City recover from that is crucial to their chances of winning at Turf Moor. Of course, on paper, this is a no-contest. However, Burnley will be banking on residual fatigue from that game to take advantage of. However, this is a City squad filled with habitual title-winners, who have history for peaking in the final stretch of the season.
