There will be a massive fixture in the Premier League toward the bottom of the standings on Sunday. Burnley’s time in the top-flight could be running out, but their chances of survival could be resurrected if they land maximum points at home against Bournemouth this weekend.

Before Betting On Burnley vs Bournemouth

It has been a campaign to forget to this point for Burnley, as last season’s Championship winners appear on course for an immediate return to the second tier. Vincent Kompany’s side come into this clash sitting bottom of the standings, and they are eleven points adrift of safety with 12 matches remaining.

Bournemouth have also endured a period to forget in the Premier League after dropping to 14th after failing to win in their last seven matches. The Cherries could yet rise back up the standings with maximum points this weekend, while they could also end the round as low as 16th if results go against them.

Burnley’s home record in this fixture is challenging to overlook, with the Clarets having suffered just one defeat in the last 14 league meetings between the sides at Turf Moor. However, Bournemouth did land a rare win against the Clarets earlier in the season, meaning that they are chasing a first league double over Burnley in their history this weekend.

The Clarets have struggled in home matches throughout this season. That is evident based on the fact that they have lost ten of their 13 matches at Turf Moor. This is already the most home defeats that they have suffered in a league campaign. Meanwhile, they have conceded three or more goals in eleven of their 26 matches this season.

Burnley’s home record against the Cherries could be a key angle to consider this weekend. However, they have come up short on countless occasions this term, and the quality that Bournemouth boasts in the final third could be the difference maker on Sunday.
