A victory in this game will help Burnley avoid relegation to the Championship. The Clarets won 3 of their previous 4 home games, and we believe that today they will be able to overcome their visitors, who no longer have any tournament motivation.
Our prediction — Burnley to win
We do not expect a particularly exciting game with many attacks and scoring chances. The hosts will probably score a goal and strive to maintain the advantage for the rest of the game. In the last two head-to-head games, no more than two goals were scored, and we predict a similar performance here.
