Man City vs Burnley: The Premier League match between Man City and Burnley is On February 1 at 1:15 am Nepal Time, Preview, and Team News.
Manchester City is hitting top gear once again, and the warning signs are ominous for Burnley as they gear up for a challenging match at the Etihad on Wednesday night.
The Cityzens recently ended their goal drought at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with a late Nathan Ake goal securing their spot in the FA Cup fifth round. Since being crowned world champions just before Christmas, Pep Guardiola’s side has yet to taste defeat, making their Premier League title pursuit increasingly threatening. With Liverpool holding a slim five-point lead at the summit, City, with a game in hand, is well-positioned to close the gap.
In a season that started dominantly for Manchester City, they previously thrashed Burnley 3-0 on the opening night of the 2023/24 campaign, setting the tone for Burnley’s relatively lackluster season. Vincent Kompany’s side suffered a setback in their quest for survival in the last outing, being denied three points by a late Luton Town equalizer. Burnley currently finds themselves five points adrift of safety.
