Michael Owen agrees with pundits on Burnley vs Man City score prediction

Manchester City will be aiming to reignite their Premier League title charge when they face relegation-threatened Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday afternoon, with kick-off at 3pm.

City, who have won each of their last nine meetings with the Clarets in all competitions, conceding just one goal in the process, will be looking to get back to winning ways in the league after playing out a goalless draw with Crystal Palace almost three weeks ago. The stalemate with Patrick Vieira's side opened the door for Liverpool to move within a point of them in the table and they did just that, beating Arsenal 2-0 48 hours later.

Therefore, City, who have since got back to winning ways, beating Southampton 4-1 in the FA Cup quarter-finals prior to the international break, could kick-off against Burnley in second place in the table. That is because Liverpool kick-off at 12:30pm on Saturday and a win against Watford would see them move above Pep Guardiola's side.

But considering City are up against a Burnley side who have won just three times in the league all season, they will fancy their chances of reclaiming top spot if Liverpool prove triumphant earlier in the day. But how do the pundits think Guardiola's troops will get on against the Turf Moor outfit?

"Turf Moor will always be seen as one of those grounds which is 'a difficult place to go', but if you are going to win the league then by hook or by crook, you go there and win," Lawrenson told BBC Sport. "Burnley will give it everything they have got, of course, but this City side have been in this situation many times under Pep Guardiola and I'd back them to come back with the three points."
