Burnley have had an amazing season but their tally of seven home wins is three fewer than last term and they look shaky favourites against Bournemouth.

The Clarets have been seventh since January but there has been a drop in intensity from them recently and last Sunday's 5-0 loss at Arsenal was their fourth match without a victory.

Bournemouth overcame a slow start to the campaign - they took four points from their first eight games - to secure a fourth successive season in the top flight. They can sign off with a respectable draw.
