With Manchester City’s margin for error in the Premier League title race close to nil, Pep Guardiola could turn to his master marksman on Saturday to continue his excellent record against Burnley.
The Blues will return from the final international break of the season with a short trip north to face Sean Dyche’s Clarets. Guardiola will be looking to kickstart some momentum ahead of a hectic April where they face Liverpool and Atletico Madrid twice.
City have an excellent record against Saturday’s opposition under the Catalan, only dropping points on one occasion in 2018 – when Danilo’s stunning opener was cancelled out by a Jóhann Berg Guðmundsson strike. In the reverse fixture this season, City were comfortable 2-0 winners at the Etihad Stadium courtesy of goals from Bernardo Silva and Kevin De Bruyne.
