Fulham Preview – Can Cottagers grab lifeline?
Following their excellent 1-0 win away from home at Liverpool back in early March, Fulham have been unable to build upon that vital win in their subsequent six matches with the hosts losing five of these six games and their situation has become desperate.
Fulham now must win on Monday night against Burnley who are their closest rivals in the battle against relegation but a significant margin of nine points separates the two teams prior to this crucial clash.
Recent defeats to Manchester City, Leeds United, Aston Villa, Wolves and Chelsea suggest that Fulham will face a tough task of recording all three points with a draw looking their most likely chance of getting something from this match – in which case, Fulham look doomed.
Burnley Preview – Can Clarets confirm safety?
With a nine-point cushion and four matches remaining of this season’s Premier League campaign, Burnley require just a point at Craven Cottage on Monday night to secure their top flight status for another season.
Although the visitors have lost four of their last five matches overall with losses incurred against Southampton, Newcastle United, Manchester United and West Ham, The Clarets had previously put together an important sequence of results which saw Burnley lose just one of eight matches and it was this stubborn run of results which has virtually saved Sean Dyche’s team from the drop.
Amongst the losses on the road, Burnley have picked up vital wins at Crystal Palace, Everton and Wolves (the latter being a 4-0 romp at Molineux) to keep their heads above water. Burnley also possess one of the most under-rated strikers up front, Chris Wood, who has notched 11 goals to date.
