Burnley’s fiercest rivalry is with Blackburn Rovers, known as the East Lancashire Derby. Separated by just 11 miles, the two clubs have shared a heated rivalry since the late 19th century, producing some of English football’s most intense encounters.

Regional rivals include Preston North End and Bolton Wanderers.

In the Premier League era, Burnley have also built competitive rivalries with clubs like Leeds United and Manchester United, particularly due to the location and, of course, passionate fan bases.

Situated on Harry Potts Way, right in the heart of Burnley, it’s renowned for its electric atmosphere on matchdays created by the club’s loyal supporters.

The ground was modernised in the mid-1990s with the addition of the two-tiered James Hargreaves Stand and Jimmy McIlroy Stand, while the Bob Lord Stand and David Fishwick Stand retain their single-tier, old-school charm.
