Burnley Preview – Can Burnley build on Reds win?
Burnley handed themselves a vital lifeline in their bid to avoid relegation from the top flight last week when they registered what seemed a highly unlikely 1-0 win away from home at Anfield against Liverpool which has lifted The Clarets up into 15th place.
Sean Dyche’s men now hold a valuable seven-point cushion over the relegation zone and although they face a tough upcoming encounter against Aston Villa, confidence will now be surging amongst the Burnley camp.
With just three defeats out of their last nine matches it looks like Burnley may have just produced a great escape from the drop but there’s still work to do especially at home where the hosts have managed to pick up just three wins out of their eight matches to date at Turf Moor.
Aston Villa Preview – Can Villa close gap on top five?
A 2-0 home win over Newcastle United on the weekend saw Aston Villa bounce back from recent back-to-back defeats against the two Manchester clubs, United and City, in 2-1 and 2-0 losses respectively but the visitors had previously held Chelsea to a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge which was part of a six-match unbeaten sequence.
During this recent promising run of results, Villa had recorded wins against Wolves, West Brom and Crystal Palace and they’ve also produced some encouraging results away from home too, as their away record of 5-1-3 14/7 indicates.
Wins on the road at Fulham, Leicester City and Arsenal together with the aforementioned victories at Wolves and West Brom prove that Villa are a decent prospect away from home and the west midlands club stand a chance of walking away from Turf Moor with something.
