Burnley, Recent FormBurnley will not be too disheartened with their 2-1 home defeat at the hands of West Ham United who sit so many places above them in the table. They achieved 51% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against West Ham United's tally of 11 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.
Whilst they have scored a reasonable 4 goals in their last 6 games, they are struggling to pick up points due to their defence, who have shipped 16 goals in the same period. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 13 games.

Goalscorer Lyle Foster will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Burnley.
Sheffield United, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 3-1 home defeat by Bournemouth will have left the Sheffield United squad feeling a little deflated. They came away from that fixture with a 45% share of the possession and clocked up 10 attempts on goal with 2 on target, in comparison to Bournemouth, who managed 23 attempts on goal, 11 of which were on target.

They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 16 games.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 6 games.
