Burnley Form & Team News

Burnley’s 5-0 loss to Man City was their first defeat in eight Premier League games. The Clarets have had an up an down season, going on winless stretches followed by unbeaten runs. Not once this campaign have Burnley won the proceeding game after losing an unbeaten run. Sean Dyche’s record against bottom-half sides has been rather impressive this season. Burnley have won nine, drawn three and lost two against the Premier League’s bottom half. Over the course of the season, Burnley have struggled for goals. 34 in 30 is hardly prolific and will be made all the more difficult by the possible of absences of three of their key players going forward. Team News Johann Berg Gudmundsson, Chris Wood, and Ashley Barnes are all doubts once again.  

Watford Form & Team News

Watford put in a decent performance against Leicester and will certainly be content with a valuable point. Their record since Nigel Pearson took charge is suggestive of a team well equipped to beat the drop. Since taking the helm in December, Pearson has won five, drawn four and lost five in the Premier League. Just two of those defeats have come to bottom-half sides. Five clean sheets in those 14 games is a marked improvement and highlights a defence that could well hold firm against a depleted Burnley. Away Team News Daryl Janmaat and Gerard Deulofeu are both likely to miss the trip to Turf Moor.
