Promoted Clarets evens to stay in top flight

BURNLEY are back in the Premier League after a 1-0 win over QPR in the Sky Bet Championship at Turf Moor.

Sam Vokes was the Clarets hero, scoring on 61 minutes to earn Burnley promotion.

Bet365 make Burnley evens to stay in the top flight next season and 2,000-1 to win the Premier League which is a shorter price than 5,000-1 Leicester started this campaign.

Sean Dyche’s side are 4-5 for a swift return back to the Championship and 16-1 to finish in the top half, while Burnley can also be backed at 100-1 to end in the Premier League’s top six.

Burnley were able to celebrate after third-placed Brighton had earlier failed to make home advantage count in a 1-1 draw against Derby at the Amex Stadium.

It means Albion head to second-placed Middlesbrough on Saturday needing a win at the Riverside to go up automatically, while any other result will see Aitor Karanka’s men join Burnley in the Premier League.

Brighton are 8-11 to go up with Boro at 2-7 and all three sides can still win the title, although Burnley are very much in the driving seat.

The Clarets, 1-8 with Coral for the title, are two points clear of the other two sides and are away to relegated Charlton.

Walsall are still in the mix to go up automatically from Sky Bet League One following a 3-1 success at home to Fleetwood left them three points behind second-placed Burton.

Albion hold the goal difference advantage but it was still a good day for Walsall with Tom Bradshaw, Paul Downing and Romaine Sawyers.

Time looks as if it is running out for Quique Sanchez Flores as Watford manager with Coral offering 3-1 the Spaniard remains at Vicarage Road for next season.

Flores has comfortably guided the Hornets to Premier League survival and the FA Cup semi-finals but he is a 2-9 shot to depart the club this summer.

Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo has returned to training for Wednesday’s clash with Manchester City.
