Analysis Shows Time Beginning to Run Out for Burnley as They Meet Brentford in the Premier League
6231

There are only four fixtures in the English Premier League this weekend and one of them is between two teams who need to improve their form towards the end of the season.

The match between Burnley and Brentford will be played on the 16th of March at Turf Moor. The hosts begin this round of games in 19th place on 14 points while the visitors are in 15th place on 26 points.

Burnley come into the match having picked up a point thanks to a 2-2 draw at West Ham United in the Premier League last weekend.

Burnley will be disappointed they did not hold on for the win as they were 2-0 up at half time. West Ham pulled a goal back at the start of the second half and scored the equaliser in the 91st minute.

The concession of the late goal at West Ham was a big blow to Burnley and the draw means they have failed to win any of their 11 most recent fixtures in all competitions.

They have lost 4 of their last 5 games, with the defeats coming in the Premier League against Arsenal and Bournemouth at home plus Liverpool and Crystal Palace away.

The stats show Burnley have won just 1 of their last 16 home Premier League matches. However, they are undefeated in 2 of their last 4 home league games, with draws against Luton Town and Fulham.

Brentford make the trip to Turf Moor on the back of a 2-1 defeat at Arsenal in the Premier League last weekend.

Arsenal opened the scoring in the 19th minute but Brentford did well to stay in the game and equalise on the stroke of half time. The Bees held on to a point for much of the second half but conceded the decisive goal in the 86th minute.

The defeat at Arsenal means Brentford have failed to win any of their 5 most recent fixtures, all of which have been played in the Premier League.

There have been defeats against Manchester City and West Ham United away plus Liverpool at home. Brentford did pick up a point thanks to a 2-2 draw at home with Chelsea.

Trends show Brentford have lost 9 of their last 10 away matches in all competitions. Both teams have scored in 4 of their last 6 away Premier League games.

Team news: Burnley are without Lyle Foster, Aaron Ramsey, Nathan Redmond, Louis Jordan Beyer, and Luca Koleosho due to injury.

Brentford travel without Ben Mee, Ethan Pinnock, Joshua Da Silva, Bryan Mbeumo, and Aaron Hickey who are all in the treatment room. There are also doubts about the fitness of Christian Nørgaard and Sergio Reguilón.

This game could prove crucial in Burnley’s fight against relegation and suck Brentford further into trouble. The Bees have a terrible recent away record and with injuries in defence, we could see Burnley take advantage. We predict a home win, with both teams scoring.
