Burnley U23 form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Burnley U23's two home games in the Premier League 2 Divison Two so far this season, having collected 3 points here at The County Ground.
The Burnley fans got no joy from their last match, a Premier League 2 Divison Two game also here at The County Ground: A 1-3 defeat against Newcastle Utd U23 (placed 8th). Ahead of that match, Burnley U23 won a home game hosting Sunderland U23 (3-2).
Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at A. Barnes for missing a penalty kick versus Newcastle Utd U23 in the 79th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.
Burnley U23 are traveling soon after this match as the Premier League 2 Divison Two match at Middlesbrough U23 awaits in four days.
Early season league goal statistics from Burnley U23's 2 home games: 4 goals, 5 conceded.
