Burnley v Bournemouth predictions

Burnley and Bournemouth have collected the two lowest Premier League points tallies since the turn of the year but the Cherries are fancied to come out on top in this battle of the strugglers.

Vincent Kompany’s side have just 13 points in total this term and they have lost ten of their 13 league matches at Turf Moor.

The Clarets' tally of five points from a possible 39 in their own back yard is the worst in the league and they have lost seven of their last nine games.

Bournemouth have not won any of their seven Premier League outings since Boxing Day but have had a tough run of fixtures, facing Tottenham, Liverpool, Manchester City and Newcastle.

Andoni Iraola’s men were unfortunate not to get more from some of their recent clashes, particularly their 2-2 draw with Newcastle in which they conceded a late equaliser..

The Cherries went toe to toe with Manchester City in their last league match, eventually losing 1-0 to Pep Guardiola’s side, but a repeat of that performance level should be enough to get the better of Sunday's hosts.

Burnley have conceded at least three goals in 11 of their 26 Premier League games this season, more than any other side.

That defensive vulnerability could be the difference between these teams and Burnley’s disappointing season looks set to continue. 

Side with Bournemouth to get back on track and inch the Clarets closer to the drop.
