Burnley failed to score in their last 180 minutes of football. The Clarets were held scoreless by Arsenal and Crystal Palace. Will Burnley end their scoreless streak in the Premier League versus Bournemouth?

Bournemouth will head north to Turf Moor to face off with the Clarets in a six-point affair. The Cherries are coming off a 1-0 loss to Manchester City at home. It was the team’s sixth straight league match without a victory.

Androni Iraola’s team is in poor form and is only eight points clear of the relegation zone. A loss to Burnley would likely suck Bournemouth into a relegation battle.

Vincent Kompany’s team is bottom of the form table. They took just two points from the last six matches. Burnley were outscored 17-5 across those six games.

In addition to their poor form, Burnley are the league’s worst home team. They picked up a mere five points from 13 home fixtures. A total of 32 goals were conceded in those 13 matches.

Bournemouth, on the other hand, took a mere three points from their last six Premier League games. They posted a -7-goal difference during that time.

Over half of Bournemouth’s points this season have come on the road. Fifteen of their 28 points were secured away from the Vitality Stadium. However, the Cherries failed to win their last four away fixtures.

Kompany has several injured players ahead of the fixture. Midfielder Aaron Ramsey, defender Nathan Redmond, and forward Lyle Foster are all three ruled out. Joining the trio will be Luca Koleosho, Josh Brownhill, and Jordan Beyer, who are out with injuries.

Foster will be a big miss due to being the co-goal scoring stats leader for the team with four. Zeki Amdouni is tied with Foster with four goals.

Bournemouth midfielder Tyler Adams will miss the game due to a leg injury. James Hill and Ryan Fredericks are both ruled out with injuries, too.

Goal scoring statistics leader Dominic Solanke is a major doubt to play. Solanke is tied for third in Premier League goals with 14. The former Liverpool man is having a career season.

Bournemouth won the reverse fixture between the teams 2-1 at the Vitality Stadium. The Cherries came from behind after Burnley’s Charlie Taylor scored in the 11th minute.

Antoine Semenyo scored in the 22nd minute to equalise. Midfielder Philip Billing scored the winner in the 76th minute.

Despite the win earlier this season, our AI-power prediction isn’t backing a Bournemouth win at Turf Moor. With the Cherries in poor form, our score prediction is for a 2-2 draw between Burnley and Bournemouth.
