Aston Villa can continue their march up the table with a victory over relegation-threatened Burnley in the midweek round of Premier League fixtures.

Villa sit in ninth despite playing two – and in some cases three – fewer games than those around them.

A win tonight could elevate them to seventh, and a further victory in their games in hand would thrust them into a battle for the top four.

It has been a remarkable turnaround for Dean Smith and his side who so narrowly avoided relegation last term.

Burnley have edged themselves clear of immediate danger following a staggering 1-0 victory over Liverpool at Anfield last time out in the top flight, but Sean Dyche will know that victory means nothing without following it up with more.

Our prediction: Burnley v Aston Villa

Burnley are looking an increasingly solid prospect in the Premier League, as is the way with Dyche's men. Their slow start has given way to optimism.

Villa are an all-or-nothing team having only drawn two of their 17 matches so far but their recent win over Newcastle and a stellar performance to frustrate a rampant Manchester City prove they have enough to keep churning out results.

Expect a tight contest at Turf Moor, but expect Ollie Watkins and Jack Grealish to provide a match-winning spark for the visitors.

Our prediction: Burnley 1-2 Aston Villa (17/2 at bet365)
