We’re doing it, guys and gals and the rest. A full-on match preview. Look at us.
What: Burnley vs. Bournemouth
Where: Turf Moor (that’s where the Burnley’s play)
When: Today, Saturday, the 22nd of February (George Washington’s birthday, eat it Britain) at 9:00 AM CST, so it’s probably already started by the time you see this/I post this because I started writing at 8:45.
How to Watch: Turn on tweet notifications from Burnley’s official account.
What’s at Stake for Burnley:
Our lads are in eleventh place, five points back of Sheffield United which holds the sixth-place spot and its coveted Europa League invitation. Sheffield is hosting Brighton & Hove Albion (both of them! just kidding that’s one team), and they’re the better of the two (or three), so Burnley probably needs a victory to keep that gap at five points. Without looking back at the standings or learning who anybody else is playing, I’d say the Clarets (that’s Burnley) will probably climb a spot or two in the table if they win. Just a guess, though.
What’s at Stake for Bournemouth:
The Fighting Jason Bourne’s Mouths are trying to stave off relegation, like a child with his friends at the neighbor’s house pretending he doesn’t hear his mother calling him home. They’re above water…for now.
Any News about Burnley?
Yeah, Chris Wood’s out with an injury. I know his name, so I’d guess he’s one of our better players.
Anything to Know about Bournemouth?
Nope.
Will Bertie Be There?
I’d assume so, but I’m realizing now that we don’t get much Bertie content from Burnley’s official Twitter. Might have to see if Bertie’s got one of his own.
