Burnley form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Burnley so far with only 13 points returning home. The records show 2-7-9 (win-draw-lose).

Burnley are travelling again after losing away to Tottenham Hotspur in their previous match (0-1). It's not a good sign for Burnley that their goalie Pope managed six saves in the Tottenham Hotspur fixture, but still could not rescue them from a loss. Collins was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.8. The defender Collins hit one key pass and won 2 of 7 duels.

A loss against Aston Villa was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Burnley are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 4 wins, 5 draws and 3 defeats. From a total of 12 matches.

A quick return to home after this game, as Burnley are hosting Newcastle United in the Premier League only three days away.

Burnley's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 27 goals from these trips. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 3 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
