Fulham will play on the road versus Burnley FC on Saturday, after each lost their most recent game in the Premier League -- to Crystal Palace and Newcastle United, respectively. We provide our prediction for this matchup in the article below.
It was Fulham's first win at Turf Moor in 30 attempts dating back to April 1951 and extended Burnley's longest losing run in the league since they lost eight straight during the 1994-95 season, when they suffered relegation to the third tier.
Burnley had 16 shots, eight on target and had an expected goals (xG) of 2.52 - totals which you would expect to be enough to win a game. But it is their wretched defensive record which is costing them as we approach the midway point of the season.
