Burnley's predicted final points tally after Leeds United defeat in Mike Jackson's first game

While most expected a tough season back in the Premier League for Burnley – it’s fair to say they’ve still managed to under-perform.

Burnley's interim boss Mike Jackson has no interest in pointing the finger

Already relegated, the Clarets – who are on the lookout for a new boss after parting ways with Scott Parker – have just three games remaining.

It’s been such a poor campaign in the top flight, Burnley look like they might even struggle to match Vincent Kompany’s low total of 24 points two years ago.

Heading into Sunday’s clash against Aston Villa, the Clarets have just 20 points to their name from their 35 games.

With title-challenging Arsenal up next afterwards, before a final day showdown against bottom side Wolves, a four-point haul is looking unlikely.

It comes after their miserable run of just one win in 26 league games continued with a 3-1 defeat to Leeds United on Friday night in Mike Jackson’s first game in interim charge.

Elsewhere down at the wrong end of the Premier League table, Wolves could only draw with 10-man Sunderland, while Tottenham lifted themselves out of the bottom three with a crucial win at Villa.

West Ham were well beaten at Brentford, while Nottingham Forest handed themselves another major boost with three points at Chelsea.
