• Manchester United 1-1 Burnley: Late Amdouni penalty earns Burnley deserved point at Old Trafford

  Burnley boosted their Premier League survival hopes after holding Manchester United to a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford.

  Zeki Amdouni’s calm late penalty moved Burnley within two points of safety with three games remaining.

  All the Clarets’ hard work appeared to be in vain when Antony broke the deadlock, but they responded well to ensure a hard-earned share of the spoils.

  Burnley remain 19th but are now two points behind 17th-place Nottingham Forest, who host Manchester City on Sunday, while United stay sixth.

  Although David Datro Fofana shot straight at Andre Onana inside the opening 30 seconds, United soon established their authority on proceedings with Christian Eriksen curling just wide and Fernandes rattling Arijanet Muric’s right post as they threatened the opening goal.

  But the hosts had Onana to thank for keeping Burnley at bay as the first half went on. First, he tipped over Wilson Odobert’s long-range effort, before producing a magnificent reflex save to deny Foster.

  Onana kept out Foster again while Alejandro Garnacho fired into the side-netting four minutes before half-time, as both sides returned to their dressing rooms still seeking the breakthrough.

  Garnacho continued to carry United’s greatest threat after the break. The Argentine winger shot narrowly wide after a swift counter, before Muric pushed away his powerful volley from a corner.

  However, the visitors gifted their opponents the opening goal in the 79th minute, as Antony intercepted Sander Berge’s loose pass before racing away and slotting past Muric.

  But there was to be a late twist three minutes from time, when Amdouni coolly rolled home the equaliser from the penalty spot after VAR ruled Onana had fouled the Burnley striker.

  Ton up for Fernandes as United stumble

  United ended their four-game winless streak when they came from behind to beat Sheffield United in midweek.

  However, they have not recorded successive victories since mid-February after Amdouni’s late penalty.

  Bruno Fernandes did his best to rally the hosts, becoming the first player this season to create 100 or more chances.

  It was in vain however, with Erik ten Hag’s side now having failed to keep a clean sheet in six attempts.

  More Old Trafford joy for Kompany

  Vincent Kompany won five of his nine Premier League visits to Old Trafford as a player (56 per cent), with only David Silva enjoying a higher success rate among opposing players with eight or more trips (75 per cent).

  The Belgian was looking to become the third person to triumph here as a player and manager, after Steve Clarke and Mark Hughes.

  While he could not quite achieve that, his side were more than deserving of a point following a spirited display against United.

  Now with only one defeat in their last eight games, the Clarets have made themselves difficult to beat at a crucial time in the season, and they will hope it pays dividends in their quest for survival.

• IPL: Fraser-McGurk leads the way as Capitals hold off Mumbai

  Delhi Capitals withstood Mumbai Indian’s late surge and held on for a 10-run victory at Arun Jaitley Stadium.

  Jake Fraser-McGurk top-scored with 84 – hitting 50 off just 15 balls – while Tristan Stubbs (48) and Shai Hope (41) also chipped in with important contributions as the Capitals set a target of 258.

  Mukesh Kumar (3/59) and Rasikh Salam (3/34) did their best to halt Mumbai’s revival, but they turned up the pressure to require 25 runs from the final over.

  However, despite Luke Wood and Piyush Chawla’s best efforts, Delhi held out for a second successive win.

  Data debrief

  Wood almost made amends after conceding 68 runs during the opening innings – the joint-most in the IPL this season, matching Reece Topley’s tally against Sunrisers Hyderabad.

  Tilak Varma led Mumbai’s attempted revival with 63 for his sixth half-century in the IPL, though they have all come in defeats

• Arteta wants to prove supercomputer wrong as Arsenal prepare for derby test

  Mikel Arteta is looking to prove the Opta supercomputer wrong as Arsenal prepare for perhaps the biggest test of their Premier League title credentials, in Sunday's North London derby at Tottenham.

  Arsenal began the weekend one point clear of Manchester City at the top of the table, though Pep Guardiola's men have a game in hand and have been in ominous form lately, winning their last four league matches. 

  Five wins for City will ensure they retain their crown, and according to the Opta supercomputer, the champions started the weekend with a 71.7% chance of topping the pile, compared to 26.6% for Arsenal and just 1.7% for Liverpool.

  Arteta hopes to see Arsenal's figure boosted by a derby win, saying: "I don't know what to say, hopefully we can trick that computer and make it a bit higher! 

  "Maybe it needs to update the software, we need to help it or give it more tools. Hopefully we can change that!

  "We are there. We have to look at ourselves and try to perform in the best possible way to win our matches and I can't wait to see what happens.

  "We had a big win in the last London derby against Chelsea and now we have another big one. I'm sure if we're going to win the league, we're going to have to beat Spurs as well."

  Tottenham, meanwhile, need points if they are to overhaul Aston Villa in the battle for Champions League qualification, with fifth place now extremely unlikely to be enough.

  Ange Postecoglou, though, is more interested in seeing how Spurs measure up to a side they hope to challenge in the future.

  "We understand the importance of the game but ultimately, it's still about us measuring ourselves against the teams we want to be challenging on a more consistent basis," Postecoglou said.

  "It's a great opportunity to do that on Sunday."

  PLAYERS TO WATCH

  Tottenham – Son Heung-min 

  Son scored twice for Spurs in the reverse fixture against Arsenal in September – a 2-2 draw at the Emirates Stadium. In all competitions, only five players have scored more goals in the fixture's history than Son's seven. 

  The only player to score multiple goals in both north London derby matches in a league season was Arsenal's Ted Drake, who did so back in 1934-35.

  Arsenal – Martin Odegaard 

  Odegaard has been involved in six goals in his last six away appearances in the Premier League, scoring three and assisting three.

  The Gunners captain was in mesmerising form in Tuesday's 5-0 win over Chelsea, leading all players on the pitch for assists (two), chances created (eight), passes into the final third (34) and duels won (eight). A repeat performance would be huge for the visitors' title hopes.

  MATCH PREDICTION – ARSENAL WIN

  Tottenham have won just one of their last six Premier League games against Arsenal (one draw, four defeats), with their four losses in this span as many as they had suffered in their previous 16 against the Gunners (six wins, six draws).

  They also lost this exact fixture 2-0 last season, meaning the Gunners could win on back-to-back league trips to Tottenham for the first time since enjoying a run of three victories there between 1987 and 1988.

  Arteta's men know there is no margin for error with the title race in City's hands.

  Even a draw could prove fatal to their hopes – at the end of the 2015-16 season, the North London derby was the most drawn fixture in Premier League history, with 20 of 48 meetings finishing level (42 per cent). Since then, only four matches between these rivals have seen the points shared (27 per cent).

  Arsenal have kept six straight clean sheets on their travels in the Premier League, with only two teams ever keeping seven in a row – Chelsea from September to December 2008 and Manchester United from November to February in 2008-09. The Gunners should have enough to grind out a huge win.

  OPTA WIN PROBABILITY

  Tottenham – 31%

  Arsenal – 41.3% 

  Draw – 27.7%
