FRIDAY

Burnley v Luton Town | Premier League | 7:45pm

Vincent Kompany’s side return to Premier League action on Friday night as the Clarets host Luton Town at Turf Moor.

The fixture was due to originally take place next Monday (15th) but due to Luton’s draw with Bolton Wanderers in the Emirates FA Cup third round and forcing a replay next week, this resulted in Burnley’s clash with the Hatters being brought forward to this Friday (12th).

Burnley are unbeaten in their previous seven fixtures against Luton with four wins and three draws including a 2-1 win at Kenilworth Road earlier this season thanks to Jacob Bruun Larsen’s wonder strike.

Full coverage of the game will be available across the Club’s official social media channels, with full commentary from Phil Bird on Clarets+ and a website match report, match reaction and highlights after the game.

The week is finalised with Rebecca Sawiuk’s side taking on Birmingham City in the Women’s FA Cup fourth round at Leyland.
