Fierce rivals Burnley and Blackburn Rovers face off in the league this weekend for the first time in more than six years.

A win would see Burnley secure their place at the top of the Championship table heading into the World Cup break.

However, Rovers are just two points behind and have won more matches than any other side in the division since the start of the campaign.

The Clarets recorded a narrow 1-0 victory when the sides last met in the Championship, with Andre Gray getting the decisive goal from the penalty spot that day.

When and where is the game being played?

The fixture takes place at Turf Moor on Sunday afternoon (KO 12:30pm). The game was initially due to kick-off at 12pm but it was pushed back by half an hour following complaints that it was too near to the start of Remembrance Day.

Both sides won in the Carabao Cup third round in midweek. Rovers beat Premier League West Ham on penalties after a 2-2 draw at the London Stadium, while Burnley overcame League Two Crawley Town thanks to a brace from substitute Anass Zaroury.
