Burnley Stats & Team News

  • Overall Record: 4-8-23
  • Home Record: 2-5-10
  • Road Record: 2-3-13

Burnley’s relegation back to the Championship was confirmed a couple of weeks ago, but the writing always appeared to be on the wall. Scott Parker’s stay with the Clarets was swiftly ended, with Michael Jackson taking charge of the team for their remaining matches.

Burnley’s form is a major red flag this weekend, as the Clarets have won just one of their last 26 in the Premier League. Meanwhile, they are also winless in their last 13 EPL fixtures at Turf Moor.

Likely Line-Up:

(5-4-1): Dubravka (GK); Walker, Humphreys, Ekdal, Esteve, Hartman; Anthony, Laurent, Ward-Prowse, Tchaouna; Flemming

Aston Villa Stats & Team News

  • Overall Record: 17-7-11
  • Home Record: 11-2-5
  • Road Record: 6-5-6

Aston Villa’s confidence will be sky high ahead of this weekend’s trip to Burnley, as the club could end their 30-year wait to win silverware after reaching the Europa League final.

The Villa were dominant from start to finish in Thursday’s clash against Nottingham Forest, with John McGinn scoring twice on his return to the starting eleven. However, in the league, Villa are winless in their last five away matches. It is also concerning that only Burnley have picked up fewer points than the Villa over the last eight rounds.

Likely Line-Up:

(4-2-3-1): Martinez (GK); Cash, Konsa, Torres, Digne; Luiz, Tielemans; Sancho, Rogers, Buendia; Watkins

Head-to-Head Trends

  • Burnley have recorded just two wins in their last 13 EPL fixtures against Aston Villa, and there are winless in their previous five.
  • Aston Villa have recorded five straight wins against the Clarets.

Burnley vs. Aston Villa Prop Picks

Emi Buendia has been a standout player for Aston Villa in recent weeks, continuing his excellent form with three goal involvements against Forest in midweek. His creativity could once again see him make a mark on another fixture.

Burnley vs. Aston Villa Picks

Burnley are one of the weakest teams in the Premier League this season, and they will likely be overpowered by a confident Aston Villa this weekend. The Villa showed their attacking quality in midweek, and another wide-scoring margin is likely on Sunday.
