Burnley boss Kompany adamant they can stay up

Burnley boss Vincent Kompany is adamant their survival chances remain alive.

The Clarets go to Manchester United on Saturday.

Kompany said: "It's game by game. As I've said from the beginning, just give us one opportunity to fight for something. That's all we need.

"It feels like that on Saturday. It's one game that gives us an opportunity and that's enough for us.

"We've been so close for a while now. In the end that's the reward for the work you do. You get to celebrate for a bit [after Saturday's win over Sheffield United] but on Monday you have to build for a really important week.

"I don't analyse the situation at the bottom, I analyse what we need to do for the next game, and I know we still have a chance [to stay up].

"I understand every weekend can bring such a shift, and I'd like it to keep tilting our way, of course."
