Burnley vs Fulham prediction: ENGLAND: Premier League betting tips on match 2025-12-12 17:30.
[p]Burnleyâs relegation woes are deepening with each passing gameweek, so the visit of fellow strugglers Fulham has a âmust-winâ feel to it.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Six successive defeats have not only seen Burnley tumble into the Premier League relegation zone, but they start this round with a yawning five-point gap to safety. Scott Parker filed his sideâs 2-1 defeat at Newcastle last weekend under the âgutsyâ category after his side played over half of the game with ten men, and heâll hope a return to Turf Moor, where two of their three league wins this term have come, can invoke a change in fortunes. If that change doesnât come and they fall to yet another defeat, it will be the first time the Clarets have lost seven top-flight games in a row since September 1895![/p]
[p]Fulham may sit seven points clear of Burnley, but by no means are they safe just yet, as back-to-back home defeats see them hit the road in a sombre mood. The Cottagers beat Spurs on their last away league outing, but thatâs the only away win theyâve mustered in the Premier League this season (D1, L5). Yet travelling to face a newly-promoted team seems the perfect opportunity to follow up that Spurs result, given Fulham are unbeaten in their last 11 Premier League games against promoted opposition (W6, D5), already beating the other two newcomers 1-0 this season, albeit both came at home. [/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]Burnley are unbeaten in their last 29 home league games against Fulham, their longest-ever run against an opponent at Turf Moor. The Clarets also beat Fulham in the month of December in their last top-flight campaign. [/p]
[p]Hot Stats and Streaks[/p]
[p]Burnley manager Scott Parker has lost 22 of his last 29 Premier League matches (W4, D3).[/p]

[p]Key Players to Watch and Missing Players[/p]

[p]Burnley will be without suspended duo Kyle Walker and Lucas Pires, while Axel Tuanzebe remains sidelined with injury. Fulham remain without their two left-backs in Ryan Sessegnon and Antonee Robinson.[/p]
