Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Burnley & AFC Bournemouth face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the FA Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Burnley form and stats
Last season their FA Cup adventure ended in the 4th round.Burnley have collected 14 points from their Premier League home games so far after 4-2-5.
Burnley drew their last game, also a home match. Brighton & Hove Albion was the opponent, 1-1 the score. Preceding that match was the home Premier League game against Manchester City that was lost 0-2.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Burnley have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found eight matches with the results: Won three, drawn three and lost two.
Burnley are traveling soon after this match as the Premier League match at Crystal Palace awaits in four days.
Burnley have scored 9 league goals here from 11 matches, not a lot. Burnley's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 13 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
AFC Bournemouth form and stats
Bournemouth was sent out of FA Cup in the 4th round last season.The visitors are W4-D6-L4 on the road this term. That's in the Championship. Bournemouth has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.
The supporters enjoyed Bournemouth's previous game versus Birmingham City, a Championship 3-2 win played at home. A 1-2 loss hosting Sheffield Wednesday before that.
World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager J. Tindall when Philip Billing scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 67th minute.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with AFC Bournemouth playing away and similar expectations, we found seven relevant matches. Results were three Bournemouth wins, one draw and three defeats.
AFC Bournemouth has another fixture away, a Championship game, against Nottingham Forest in just four days. A tough schedule for the visitors!
Bournemouth have scored 18 goals on their travels this season, from 14 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Bournemouth have seen the ball go into their own net 14 times on the road. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
