Burnley face a must-win showdown in the Premier League this weekend, as they play host to Fulham at Turf Moor. The Clarets are already adrift from safety, meaning that a defeat against the Cottagers this weekend isn’t an option for Vincent Kompany.
It has been a poor season to this point for Burnley, and it already appears incredibly hard to make a case for them to stay in the Premier League this term. The Clarets come into the weekend sitting 19th in the standings and they are currently six points away from safety. Burnley have recorded just three wins in 21 matches this season, and they are without a victory in their last three.
One of the most disappointing factors surrounding their season to this point has been their record at Turf Moor. The Clarets have won just once in front of their home fans this term, with that success coming on matchday 14. They have picked up just four points from eleven home matches, and they have conceded 25 goals, which is eight more than they have allowed on the road.
This could be a decent fixture for the Clarets, as Fulham have also been struggling for form in the Premier League in recent months. They come into this match sitting 12th in the standings, while they have recorded just a single win in their last five.
Their lack of quality in the final third was once again evident in midweek, as they played out a goalless draw against Everton at Craven Cottage. Fulham have been especially weak on the road this season, picking up just one win from their eleven matches. Meanwhile, they have scored just nine goals.
Burnley landed a 2-0 win in the reverse fixture between these sides this term, meaning that they have now won four of their last five against the Cottagers. They are also on a long unbeaten home sequence in this fixture, which furthers their chances of victory.
There are no excuses for Burnley this weekend, they need to win this fixture at Turf Moor. They look good value to achieve that based on Fulham’s inability to pick up victories on their travels this season.
