Burnley plays in the morning.
Whom:
Burnley vs. Leeds
What:
EPL match 36 of 38 on the year for the Clarets
Where:
Turf Moor!
When:
6:30 AM American Central Daylight Time
How to Watch:
Ok so I always look up NBC’s preview to see what channel the game’s on and they’ve got a guy for Leeds listed as questionable because of “buttock.” Poor Liam Cooper. Man.
Anyway the game’s on NBCSN, so that’s fun.
What’s at Stake:
Some money. The higher you finish in the table, the more cash you get. And Burnley could always use some cash. Burnley’s free from relegation but one of five teams within four points of one another in the standings with three matches left. Win would help them in that race for 13th.
The Odds:
NBC’s saying PointsBet’s saying Burnley winning is at +185, Burnley losing is at +135, and a draw is at +245. So better than a 50% chance of at least a point, per the market.
Burnley News:
Phil Bardsley had hernia surgery, and Nick Pope might be sidelined with the shoulder and knee injuries he’s been dealing with. Gotta keep Nick Pope healthy.
Bertie News:
Nothing big. Wonder if he’ll be back next week for the Liverpool match when fans are in the building. Boy. That’d be a ride.
