What channel is Burnley vs Watford? Kick-off time, TV channel and live stream details
Premier League relegation rivals Burnley and Watford prepare to lock horns on Saturday at Turf Moor when they finally get to meet in this twice rearranged fixture.
The Clarets sit rock bottom of the top flight on 12 points after just one win from their first 18 matches of the campaign, which hasn’t been helped by scoring just 16 goals all season.
Sean Dyche’s side are currently four points from safety but do have four games in hand on 17th placed Norwich City, which begins with this clash on Saturday.
The Hornets are just one place and two points above their hosts and sacked Claudio Ranieri following their 3-0 defeat to relegation rivals Norwich last time out, as Roy Hodgson prepares to take charge of his first game in the dugout.
His new club are two points from safety and have two games in hand on the Canaries, so a win here for them will lift them above the dreaded dotted line at least for a few days.
What are each side’s chances of staying up this season? Let us know what you think in the comments section below.
Burnley vs Watford will kick off at 6pm on Saturday, February 5 at Turf Moor.
The last meeting between the two sides was a Premier League clash in June 2020, when a 73rd minute strike from Jay Rodriguez handed Burnley a 1-0 win over their visitors.
Burnley haven't recorded a victory since the end of October with pressure now mounting on Dyche to turn their fortunes round quickly.
Watford have had a similarly barren spell, with their last win coming at the end of November in the shock 4-1 demolition of Man Utd.
The match will be televised live on BT Sport 1 and BT Sport Ultimate, while there will also be a live stream service online via the BT Sport app.
