U23s' Clash With Rovers Gets New Date

Burnley's U23 Premier League Cup tie with Blackburn Rovers will be played next Tuesday at Oldham Athletic.

The Group G fixture at Boundary Park has been scheduled for 25 February (KO 2pm) after the original date was washed out by a waterlogged pitch at Morecambe.

As a result, the Clarets' Professional Development League fixture at Sheffield Wednesday on Monday, 24 February will be re-arranged.

The U23s' fixture against Wigan Athletic - scheduled for Friday, 28 February at Curzon Ashton - has also been postponed and will be given a new date.

The PL Cup home derby against Rovers is the Clarets’ last game in the competition, with qualification to the knock-out stages no longer possible.
