Burnley are hoping to win again following the 1-2 Championship success versus Cardiff City.

In that game, Burnley had 48% possession and 12 shots at goal with 5 on target. For Burnley, the goals were scored by Josh Brownhill (19') and Maxime Estève (40'). On the other side, Cardiff City got 9 attempts on goal with 2 of them on target. Yousef Salech (42') scored for Cardiff City.

Their more recent scorelines highlight the fact that things are going according to plan in the Burnley backline. Burnley have been miserly, seeing the number of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper over the course of their last 6 outings standing at 3. Having said that, we must now wait to see whether such a trend might be sustained here in this match or not.

Their prior results show that Burnley:

• haven't lost in the league to Luton Town in their last 9 matches. A decent run, indeed.
• are unbeaten in their last 17 league matches at home. What a fortress they have created.

• have not lost to Burnley when they have played them away from home in the previous 8 matches in the league. What an away run they have had against them.
• haven’t won away from home in the past 14 matches in the league. They must be getting so desperate.
