Burnley will look to maintain their formidable unbeaten home record this weekend as they welcome an in-form Watford side to Turf Moor. Fresh off a 2-1 comeback victory over Norwich City, Scott Parker’s men are just one point shy of second-placed Leeds United and eager to climb back into the Championship’s top two. However, they face a stern test against a Watford team that hasn’t lost in six matches, making this clash a pivotal moment in the promotion race.

With fitness concerns surrounding Maxime Esteve and Jeremy Sarmiento, and Connor Roberts returning from illness, Parker’s lineup will be carefully considered. Key performers like CJ Egan-Riley and Josh Brownhill are expected to feature prominently, while Jay Rodriguez leads the attack in the absence of Lyle Foster. The stage is set for a high-stakes showdown as Burnley aim to extend their unbeaten streak and edge closer to their promotion goals.
