Burnley vs Crystal Palace - 20/11/2021

There are several fixtures to look forward to in the English Premier League on Saturday the 20th of November including the meeting between Burnley and Crystal Palace.

The match will be played at Turf Moor and the hosts begin the weekend in 18th place on 8 points while the visitors are in 10th place on 15 points.

Burnley come into the match on the back of a great 1-1 draw at Chelsea last time out. Burnley fell behind in the 33rd minute and rode their luck at times in the second half before scoring the equalising goal with 11 minutes remaining on the clock.

That result built on the good 3-1 home victory against Brentford the previous week and Burnley will be hoping this is the beginning of a strong run that will take them out of the relegation zone.

Trends show Burnley are undefeated in their last 3 Premier League fixtures and in addition to the two games highlighted above, they picked up a point in an entertaining 2-2 draw at Southampton. In fact, Burnley have lost only 1 of their last 6 Premier League matches.

However, wins have not been easy to come by of late and Burnley have won only 4 of their last 26 Premier League games. Keeping clean sheets has proven difficult at home and Burnley have conceded goals in 10 of their last 11 Premier League matches on home soil.

Crystal Palace travel to Turf Moor having recorded a 2-0 home victory against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League prior to the international break. Both goals came in the second half and that result means Crystal Palace are undefeated in each of their last 6 Premier League fixtures.

The Eagles have recorded 2 wins in those 6 undefeated games but they have been in their 2 most recent matches, one of which was at Manchester City. Crystal Palace defeated the defending champions 2-0 at the Etihad Stadium, which was a great result.

Away form in the Premier League shows Crystal Palace are undefeated in 3 of their last 4 games on the road. However, they have been defeated 3 times in a row in their matches against Burnley in the Premier League and need to end that run in this game.

Team news and Burnley have only one injury concern and Dale Stephens misses out due to an ankle injury. Every other player should be fit and available for the hosts.

Crystal Palace have doubts over the fitness of Will Hughes and Eberechi Eze. Joachim Andersen and Nathan Ferguson are not expected to return in time for this match.

Burnley have been showing signs of improvement in recent weeks but come up against a Crystal Palace team in good form. We expect to see both teams find the back of the net but it is difficult to split them and they may have to settle for a point.
