Premier League supercomputer's bleak prediction for Burnley and Sheffield United!

Burnley's time in the Premier League is up, according to a supercomputer's prediction on how the 2020/21 season will play out.

The predictive formula, devised by Betting Expert during the Christmas period, suggests that the Clarets' run in the top flight is coming to an end.

Burnley, now in their fifth successive term in the top flight, and their sixth season at this level under Sean Dyche's governance, closed 2020 with three points at home to Sheffield United.

However, despite opening up a five-point gap from the relegation zone, the club is being backed to make a return to the Championship.
