Burnley suffer relegation battle blow as Everton given boost before Brentford

Burnley's survival hopes took a major hit at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as Mike Jackson's side suffered a 1-0 defeat at the hands of the hosts.

This loss leaves the Clarets level on points and games played with 18th-placed Leeds United, who are in action this afternoon against Brighton. Everton remain two points clear of Burnley, a gap that can stretched further this afternoon should the Blues get the better of Brentford at Goodison Park.

Burnley have now succumbed to back-to-back losses in the Premier League, failing to make the most of opportunities to put Leeds into an uncomfortable position.
