Clarets' fine home form looks to be the key

Premier League
3pm

Only Chelsea and Spurs have posted more top-flight home wins than Burnley this term and their excellence at Turf Moor can continue.

Middlesbrough have dug out some good results at difficult venues – drawing at Arsenal, Manchester City and Leicester – but face a physical test and may struggle to cope.

Burnley know their home results will be crucial to their survival quest and they look overpriced to beat a Boro side perched one point above them.
