A 0-0 draw away before that, with Norwich City the opponent.

The manager Taylor will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Bristol City in only four days.

Burnley form and stats

Burnley's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Burnley collect 40 points from their 20 away matches in the Championship. 11 victories and 7 draws have created these points (and only 2 defeats). In general it has been a productive period now for Burnley as they haven't lost any of their last 21 games.

The Burnley goalkeeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 222 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Reading (placed 22nd) in their previous outing. The match ended in a draw 0-0. Taylor, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 8.02. Taylor hit one key pass and won 3 of 5 duels.

That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Sheffield United.

After this away game Burnley return home for a Championship game against Queens Park Rangers. That game is only four sleeps after this.

Burnley are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 33 times in 20 away games so far. It's not easy to score on Burnley as they have only conceded 17 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.
