No more Saturday games as Burnley's fixture against Aston Villa moved
Burnley’s game against Aston Villa next month has been rescheduled – leaving the Clarets with no more Saturday games for the remainder of the season.
Scott Parker’s side were originally due to host Villa at Turf Moor on Saturday, May 9.
But owing to Villa’s progress in the Europa League, which sees them take on Nottingham Forest in the semi-finals, the fixture has had to be pushed back a day to Sunday, May 10.
The clash will now kick off at the earlier time of 2pm and will now be broadcast live on Sky Sports.

It means, with six games remaining, none of Burnley’s remaining fixtures will take place on a Saturday.
This weekend’s trip to Nottingham Forest comes on a Sunday, before hosting Manchester City the following Wednesday.
A Friday night trip to Leeds United awaits later this month, while the final two games of the season – Arsenal away and Wolves at home – will both take place on a Sunday, although kick-off times are still to be determined.
