Both of these sides are struggling and in the bottom five of the Premiership table. Burnley have only won three of their home league games so far this season but have won their last thee games including a win in the FA Cup. Fulham have a bad away record with no away league victories so far this season and have only obtained 2 points away. This could be close and I think that Fulham will have a defensive cautious attitude which Burnley will have difficulty with and I think it will be a draw.
Fulham have drawn 2 and lost 9 of their 11 league away games played, and sit 19th in the Premiership with 14 points , losing their last league game played 4-1 away against Arsenal. Fulham have scored 19 goals and conceded 47 goals in their 21 league games played. Burnley have won 3 drawn 1 and lost 6 of their 10 home league games played, and sit 16th in the Premiership with 18 points winning their last league game played 1-2 away against Huddersfield. Burnley have scored 21 goals and conceded 42 goals in their 21 league games payed. Fulham have already beaten Burnley 4-2 at home this season, although lost the last 2 meetings in the Championship in 2015/16 season 2-3 and 3-1 this fixture . In the last 5 head to heads 4 have seen both teams have scored. I am taking both teams to score in this game
While Burnley have enjoyed a fine rise in the past few matches – three wins in three matches – their counterparts, Fulham have struggled to get out of the red zone on their return to the Premier League and this here will be a must win for the London side. For Fulham, a loss could see them fall a good seven points off the safety zone. The Londoners have managed just two wins in their last 17 matches and coming from the loss to lower tier side Oldham in the FA Cup has definitely dented their confidence. Away from home, Fulham have 10 losses in the last 13 away matches across all competitions. They have conceded 12 goals in the last five away matches and scored just two. They take on a Burnley side on three straight wins, and having scored in each of their last five matches. While Burnley have not had an entirely different season to Fulham’s, we can expect them to head here more confident going by their recent form. The fact that Fulham has the worst defence in the league this season doesn’t help matters a lot for the Londoners; they have conceded 47 goals in 21 matches. One of their three wins this season in the Premier League came against Burnley and they will be hoping to seal a double. In the last four matches between the two sides, each has win two and all have produced over 2.5 goals. In 38 meetings in history, Burley have picked 21 wins and Fulham 12.
