Burnley will aim to keep their Premier League promotion hopes alive when they host Sheffield Wednesday at Turf Moor this week.
The Clarets have topped the Championship table in their last two second-tier campaigns, most notably in 2022-23, when they smashed the 100-point mark under Vincent Kompany. However, their return to the top flight was short-lived, as they endured a disastrous campaign, finishing 19th and suffering relegation. Under Scott Parker, Burnley have yet to hit top gear this season, but with just five points separating them from the summit, a strong run could put them right back in contention.
Meanwhile, Sheffield Wednesday have been absent from the Premier League since 2000-01 and have struggled to escape the second tier. After earning promotion from League One last season, they barely avoided the drop in their Championship return, finishing in the bottom five. This year, however, they've shown remarkable improvement, currently sitting comfortably in the top half of the table.
