Burnley’s sensational late come back win at Watford secured a huge three points in their fight against relegation to the EFL Championship.
The Clarets are now five points ahead of 18th place Everton and also leapfrogged Leeds United who were comfortably beaten by league leaders Manchester City.
The Toffees play today, at home to Chelsea, and need a win to bring that gap back to two points with a game in hand over the Clarets.
Speaking after the match, interim head coach Mike Jackson said: “We didn’t start the game well enough and I think the group knew that and we had to raise it in the second half and they responded really well.
“The games are that emotionally charged at the moment that I don’t think you are going to get silky games of football, it is about finding a way of winning.
“We got that first goal and then the second goal, just mayhem.
“But that is this group and what they do. People criticise them other things but you can never criticise them for that spirit and togetherness.”
Away from the action on the pitch there is still plenty going on behind the scenes as clubs continue to prepare for the summer transfer window.
