Newcastle will hope to claim at least one point for the fifth time since late February when they rock up at Burnley on Sunday.

Steve Bruce’s men have claimed four draws from their previous five Premier League fixtures, scraping together crucial points in the battle with Brighton and Fulham to avoid relegation.

The 2-2 draw with Tottenham last weekend saw the Magpies move three points ahead of Fulham at the start of this weekend, and Bruce knows his troops must keep their heads up.

Burnley have already showcased how to move away from the Premier League drop zone with a fine spring that has seen them edge into 15th place and inch closer to the fabled 40-point mark.

But can Sean Dyche see off Toon here and keep the Clarets on course for another season in the top flight?

Our prediction: Burnley v Newcastle

Spirits are high in the Newcastle camp as they prove tough to beat over the spring but what Bruce would love is a win to catapult them away from 17th place.

And that is unlikely to come here. Dyche is wily enough to know that Bruce would take a point from this encounter before kick-off, and there’s no reason for Burnley to bomb forward in search of a winner and risk losing the game.

Burnley don’t want to be sucked into a late relegation scrap with Newcastle, and so it seems likely the points will be shared at Turf Moor.

Our prediction: Burnley 0-0 Newcastle (6/1 at bet365)
