We welcome the Clarets to the Joie Stadium for a 19:00 (UK) kick-off tonight.
It’s the first game of 2026 for Ben Wilkinson and our Elite Development Squad, who have returned for the latter half of 2025/26, looking to extend our form.
We head into the game unbeaten in five in all competitions.Â
In the PL2, we sit 13th with 13 points following four wins, one draw and four defeats.
And a positive result against Burnley could see us climb into the top 10 as we look to confirm our place in the top 16 and play-offs of the PL2 as early as possible.Â
But, with Burnley sat in 26th, six points behind 16th, our opponents will need to pick up as many points as possible in their remaining 11 games.
It points towards another exciting PL2 clash, so who will come out on top?Â
