Leeds United absent as former England man predicts relegation showdown

Danny Murphy hasn't ruled out Burnley getting themselves out of danger in the Premier League despite their 2-0 defeat against Norwich City on Sunday. Pierre Lees-Melou's first Norwich goal put the hosts in front early on, before Teemu Pukki added a second late on to secure the three points for the Canaries.

Leeds United and Everton boosted their chances of survival with wins over Watford and Manchester United respectively, leaving the Clarets firmly inside the relegation zone. Raphinha, Rodrigo and Jack Harrison struck for the Whites at Vicarage Road, while Anthony Gordon's finish proved to be the difference for Frank Lampard's men.

Sean Dyche's side currently sit four points behind the Toffees and nine points off Leeds - but do have two games in hand on the Whites. However, Burnley have won just four games all season, giving them an uphill task if they are to stay in the top-flight.
