Sean Dyche hopes his players can seal a record points tally in the Premier league to reward their efforts in a titanic season.
The Clarets need a draw at home to Brighton to eclipse the 54 points achieved during the 2017/18 season that resulted in Europa League qualification.
That reward is not an option this time out, but a record haul of points would be another milestone in the club’s incredible rise under Dyche.
“The players have been extremely diligent during the lockdown period and they have got their rewards for that,” said Dyche,” whose side have picked up 15 points from eight games since the season re-started in June, including becoming th eonly Premier League side this seaosn to take points off Champions Liverpool at Anfield.
