Burnley News and Form

The Clarets were unbeaten in three (W2 D1) before their trip to Manchester City last weekend where they lost 5-0.

Burnley have produced a W2 D2 L5 record this season overall home and away in the Premier League.

The Clarets have lost four of their five games this season against sides currently sitting in the top half of the table.

Overall the home form of Burnley at Turf Moor is W1 D1 L2 and they are undefeated in their last two there.

Three of Burnley’s last four league games have seen at least three goals. Over 2.5 goals is at 4/5 odds* (betting odds taken on October 26th, 2018 at 4:05 pm)

Aaron Lennon has been ruled out of action for the weekend through illness.

Burnley have scored four of their six home goals this season in the first half of matches and have opened the scoring in two of their four.

The Clarets have failed to score in four of their nine league games this season. But they have scoring form against Chelsea so both teams to score is at 11/10 odds* (betting odds taken on October 26th, 2018 at 4:05 pm).

The Clarets have only been trailing at half time in one of their four home games this season (W2 D1) so the half time draw at least may offer a little bit of appeal on the fixture.
