Can Burnley continue their excellent form versus Crystal Palace?
3378

Burnley are the Premier League’s in-form team at the bottom of the table. The Clarets are unbeaten in five of their last six games in the Premier League and back-to-back matches finished as wins.

Sean Dyche’s team went from the bottom of the Premier League table up to 18th place in the table. Burnley are now just two points off of 17th-place Newcastle United and safety. The Clarets have a game in hand over Newcastle United.

Crystal Palace are coming off of a 4-1 win against Watford in the Premier League. The win ended a six-match winless streak for the Eagles in the league. Crystal Palace are 11th place and nine points off of the relegation zone ahead of Saturday’s clash at Selhurst Park.

In the reverse fixture, Crystal Palace and Burnley drew 3-3 at Turf Moor. Christian Benteke scored in the eighth minute, but Ben Mee levelled the score 11 minutes later.

Chris Wood put Burnley into the lead on 27 minutes. Benteke scored again on 36 minutes and Crystal Palace took the lead minutes later through Marc Guehi.

Four minutes after the restart from halftime, Maxwel Cornet scored on 49 minutes as the teams drew the fixture.

Burnley are unbeaten in four straight matches versus Crystal Palace. Three of those four games ended as wins for the Clarets. Four of the last five matches between these teams finished with both teams not scoring goals.

The Clarets took nine points from the last 18 points possible in the league. They scored five goals and conceded just two across the last six games. Crystal Palace took only six points from the last 18 points possible in the division.

Patrick Vieira’s team scored seven goals and conceded seven times across the last six games.

The Eagles are on a three-match losing streak at home. Crystal Palace have a home record of 4W-5D-4L.

Vieira will be without the trio of Nathan Ferguson, goalkeeper Vincente Guaita, and Joel Ward. Dyche has five players on the injury list going into the game. Matej Vydra and Johann Gudmundsson are both ruled out of the game.

Dyche could be without Ashley Westwood, Charlie Taylor, and Cornet. All three are major doubts to make the team.

Wout Weghorst is in fine form since arriving from Wolfsburg in January. He has a goal and two assists in five Premier League matches.

Crystal Palace and Burnley drew 3-3 when the teams met earlier this season. Saturday’s game at Selhurst Park should finish in another draw but the teams should score under 2.5 goals this time around.
