In a pivotal Championship match, Burnley secured a 2-1 victory over Watford, solidifying their path to promotion. Despite being labeled as a defensively dominant team, Watford managed to score against Burnley’s goalkeeper James Trafford. However, the match turned when Watford's Moussa Sissoko and Edo Kayembe received red cards, leaving the team reduced to nine men. Burnley's continued unbeaten run in the league now stands at 30 matches, setting them on course for a return to the Premier League with a potential win against Sheffield United looming ahead.
