Burnley are flying in seventh and catching sixth-placed Arsenal, who are more focused on Europa League activities, is still a realistic proposition. Ashley Barnes’ contribution of four goals in four has been a huge part of their recent success and that could well continue because Watford have conceded 10 goals in their past three matches. Javi Gracia will be looking for his side to build on their improved showing last week against Bournemouth with a win that would equal their points tally last season. Graham Searles
