Any idea if it is screened on Clarets+ please?

Can't find any mention of the game on the club website. I've contacted Darren Bentley to ask him.

From the Stoke City website -

Youngsters take on Burnley this afternoon
Kevin Russell’s side visit the Leyland County Ground
Win would move Potters into second spot in Premier League 2
The U23s will be aiming to make it three wins on the bounce when they take on Burnley in Premier League 2 later today (2pm kick-off).
Kevin Russell’s side head to Lancashire after comfortably seeing of the challenges of Middlesbrough (2-0) and Wolverhampton Wanderers (3-1) in their last two matches.
The youngsters currently sit third in the table following Reading’s victory on Friday, however they can move back into second spot with maximum points this afternoon.
In order to move directly behind Division Two leaders Leeds United, the Potters will need to beat a Clarets side who claimed a narrow 1-0 victory at Clayton Wood earlier in the season.
Burnley, who are enjoying their first season as a Category One academy, currently sit 8th in the table, three points behind City and with a game in hand.

More opportunities likely as young Clarets aim to keel climbing

The U23s will look to continue their impressive run when they face Stoke City at Leyland this afternoon (Monday).

Steve Stone’s side has lost only one of its last eight games in Premier League 2 – a run that includes a 1-0 success at Stoke in early December.

Stone has also kept his young side busy with friendlies and followed up a 2-0 league win at Newcastle last Monday, where goalkeeper Marc Richters saved an early penalty, with a 1-0 training-ground loss at Liverpool last Friday when half-a-dozen under-18 players were involved.

“We have conceded one goal in three games and Marc has been terrific in all three behind his defence,” said Stone.

“There have been lots of lads up around the first team because of injuries and that has provided opportunities for others.

“We are always looking to provide those opportunities for youngsters coming through.

“That’s what we’ve always been about and we will continue to do that.”

Stone, who will be without midfielder Mace Goodridge following his loan move to Barrow, has been adding extra fixtures, with the Liverpool game following a visit from League of Wales outfit The New Saints, to give his players a more rounded preparation – but still wants results.

“To lose has still got to hurt and they have to get themselves ready and pump themselves for Stoke who are another good Category One team,” said Stone, whose side will go level with the third-placed Potters if they can hand the visitors a first defeat in three games.

“We have provided tests for them and there will be more tests for them to make sure they know what being a professional footballer is all about.”

Today’s game kicks off at 2pm and will be streamed live for subscribers to Clarets +

A one-month free trial offer is still available and details of all packages are available on the club website.

Presumably a number of regulars won't be playing - or very little - given the match tomorrow (?)

Shouldn't make much difference to the team.

Cheers for the heads up Leisure

Thanks Leisure. I will be able to watch hopefully!

I will watch then. I like these games, the future is bright.

Back in September, we signed a young lad from Arsenal called Ismaila Diallo. I've never seen his name mentioned since in any of our younger teams. Anybody got any idea what's happened to him?

Sounds like a prime example of poor communications, a lack of nouse when it comes to social media and encouraging traffic!

A Burnley game, no matter the level, should surely be promoted heavily by the club and it be easy to access / navigate to.

Losing 2 - 1 on 57 mins.

lost 2-1, We were poor today on a pitch which didn't help us.
Stoke were more physical.
It wasn't a very entertaining watch, and the ref was over-officious beyond belief.

horrible pitch to play on no bounce to ball really rough
