    Manchester City host Burnley in the Premier League on Monday night, with the hosts looking to keep winning to delay the moment their title is officially taken away.

    Pep Guardiola’s team will, barring any exceptional fall-off, end the season in second place, but wants to keep giving players chances to reach full match sharpness ahead of their involvement in the Champions League.

    Burnley are aiming to secure themselves a top-10 finish in the league, having gone seven matches unbeaten in the league before the campaign was postponed in March.
