Insights:
  • Burnley have the fewest conceded goals (34) in Championship

Bristol City can neither be promoted or relegated from Championship. Happy, happy days for Burnley who are already winners of the Championship. This could affect their motivation.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Championship. That game, against Blackburn Rovers, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Burnley.

Bristol City form and stats

When playing at home in the Championship, Bristol City have managed 9 wins, 7 draws and suffered 6 defeats from 22 games.

Bristol City's last game was hosting Rotherham United (placed 19th) and winning 2-1. Sweet to taste a league win after three games without one. Manager Pearson felt very clever after Weimann scored the winning goal against Rotherham United, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 73rd minute. Naismith, defender, was given a rating of 7.45/10 in that game, top of the team. Naismith hit one key pass and won 9 of 13 duels.

Heartbreak before that as Bristol lost 0-1 at Sheffield United's place.

Not much happening? Looking at this club's last 15 league games, 12 have contained zero, one or two goals.

Bristol City are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 29 goals in 22 games.

Burnley form and stats

Burnley have an excellent away record in the Championship so far with 12-8-2 from 22 games. Burnley are enjoying a nice run from their away games now, having played twelve in a row without losing.

Two away games in a row for Burnley, whose manager Kompany could celebrate last time after the win against Blackburn Rovers. That victory felt sweet as this side had gone three league matches without victory. Benson came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Blackburn Rovers last time out, making the manager Kompany feel like a tactical genius. Goalkeeper Murić got the top player rating of the team with 8.42/10. Murić topped it up with a clean sheet.

A 1-2 loss hosting Queens Park Rangers before that.

Burnley are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 36 times in 22 away games so far. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. It's not easy to score on Burnley as they have only conceded 19 goals from these away games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.

Head 2 Head

The 6 most recent matches featuring these sides have all finished as Burnley wins. Surely both teams are aware of this.

Bristol and Burnley have duelled previously this season: Burnley - Bristol City 2-1.
