If the fight for the Premier League title rages between Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal, the race to maintain it is just as exciting with the trio Burnley, Sheffield and Luton Town. The three teams were playing this Saturday afternoon, including a direct confrontation between Burnley, 19th, and Sheffield, 20th. And in this opposition, it was the formation of Vincent Kompany which largely won (4-1). An excellent operation since this victory allows us to defeat a direct competitor and above all to get closer to Luton who were corrected by Brentford.

Indeed, in the other meeting, the small Luton Town team could not do anything against Brentford. Yoan Wissa had already sealed his team’s victory in the first half with a double. Then, the visitors scored three new goals and ended up winning (5-1). With this defeat, Luton is only 5 points ahead of Burnley and above all, it can see Nottingham Forest, first non-relegation, take 4 points ahead.
