Clarets host Forest in final game of the campaign

Burnley take on Nottingham Forest on Sunday afternoon (4pm) as the Clarets draw a close to the 2023/24 Premier League season at Turf Moor.

Vincent Kompany's side will be aiming to end the season on a high in front of the home crowd for the last game of the season, despite suffering relegation last weekend at Spurs.

The Clarets have come up against Forest twice already this season, once in the league which saw the two sides draw and a victory over the Reds in the Carabao Cup back in August.

Form guide

Burnley head into Sunday after a 2-1 defeat at Spurs last weekend which saw the Clarets relegated from the top-flight despite taking a 1-0 lead through Jacob Bruun Larsen.

The Clarets lost last time out at home to Newcastle but were three games unbeaten on home soil prior to that defeat two weeks ago.

Forest have lost three of their last four fixtures with defeats to Chelsea, Manchester City and Everton in between a 3-1 victory over Sheffield United last time out on the road.

Despite leading 2-1 against the Blues at the City Ground last Saturday with 15 minutes to play, two goals in two minutes from the visitors ensured defeat for the home side.

What Vincent Kompany said

"We will go all out, definitely. If we are treating this as the first game of next season, in terms of preparing for that season then this is an important game and we have to go all out.

"The main thing for us is winning the game and that's our priority. There are a couple of a personal stories attached to the game because some players might be playing their last game and we want to be conscious of that too.

"But the intention to do everything we can to win this game is so important, we have to give the team a chance to do that, so that also has to be reflected in the team selection.

"It will be a test for us against a good side, who will also want to finish strong but our main aim is to try take all three points at home in front of the fans."
