Following last weekend's emphatic victory over Hull City, Burnley U18s return to the pitch against Watford on Saturday morning.
Tony Philliskirk's team were 5-0 victors over the Tigers at the Burnley Training Centre and are aiming to claim three more valuable Professional Development League points on this lengthy away trip.
Callum West opened the scoring for the young Clarets last time out and Rohan Vaughan followed up with a penalty after Lucas Wane was fouled in the area,
Trialist B was the next name added to the scoresheet before Zach Johnson and Logan Carlin followed up with further strikes to put the icing on top of a dominant display.
The result moved Burnley up to 4th in the northern section of the table with 31 points from 21 matches.
Saturday's opponents Watford are flying high in the southern section of the table, sitting 2nd place with 41 points. The Hornets have claimed 13 wins and two 2 draws in the league since the start of the season.
Adam Balletta's team enters this match on the back of a one all draw with Swansea City last Friday. While the Hornets secured an early lead through Jonathan Lawson, it was Sammy Henia-Kamau who delivered a late equaliser for the Swans.
Supporters are welcome to travel down to the game at the University College London, Shenley Ground (AL2 1BZ) on Saturday morning.
