Burnley vs Crystal Palace Prediction

Burnley will search for super-important points on Saturday afternoon when they host Crystal Palace in Gameweek No 11 at Turf Moor.

Clarets got off to an underwhelming start to their new life in the top flight of English football, losing eight of the inaugural ten games of the season.

The latest one came seven days ago in the clash against direct relegation rivals AFC Bournemouth, 1-2 at Vitality Stadium.

Vincent Kompany’s men continued to leak goals, making it fourth game in the last five rounds with at least two goals allowed.

Burnley have the second-worst defensive record in the Premier League with 25 goals shipped in 10 matches.

Luckily for Kompany and his men, they are now set to face Crystal Palace whose attacking line has been anything but impressive so far in the season.

In the absence of injured talismans Michael Olise and Eberechi Eze, the Eagles managed to find the back of the net just eight times in ten outings this term.

They have scored just two goals in the last six matches in all competitions, one of which came in the dying minutes of the last Friday’s home loss to Tottenham Hotspur (1-2).

Latest Meetings

We’ve witnessed two separate draws in the head to head clashes between these two teams two seasons ago in the Premier League.

Overall, Burnley have been more successful with 16 wins, 13 draws, and 11 losses in the last 40 clashes against the Eagles.

Both teams were on target just twice in the last six matches between these rivals.

The Verdict

This is a very tough game to call with plenty at stake for the hosts who have, however, not been pulling up any trees since the beginning of the season. Since Crystal Palace did not impress of late either, we will still back Burnley not to lose in front of their fans at the 1.50 odds.

Both teams have been struggling for goals throughout the season. Knowing how important the match is, we’ll also take the Under 2.5 goals FT pick at the 1.65 odds.
