Burnley vs Newcastle United Prediction Prediction Match Details
Burnley, who are currently struggling with relegation, will face Newcastle in the 36th round of the Premier League on Saturday afternoon at the Turf Moor stadium. The Clarets are in dire need of securing three points to make a late charge for safety, while Newcastle aims to secure a victory to draw level on points with Manchester United.
Burnley Preview & Form
Burnley are displaying great fighting spirit in their attempt to stay in the Premier League next season. The Clarets are currently unbeaten in their last three games, with the most recent match resulting in a crucial point against Manchester United in a late 1-1 draw at Old Trafford. With five wins, nine draws, and 21 losses, Burnley currently sits 19th in the Premier League after 35 games, leaving them on 24 points, just two points from safety.
Vincent Kompany’s side is desperate to improve their home run of form, as they have only won one of their last five home matches, recording two draws, two losses, and one win. Burnley struggled to maintain their win in their last home match against Brighton, with Muric scoring a home goal in the 79th minute. While goal scoring has not been Burnley’s main issue – they have failed to score in just two of their last five home matches – their defense needs to improve as they have conceded goals during the run.
Newcastle United Preview & Form
Newcastle United recently won a 5-1 victory against Sheffield United at their home stadium as they pushed for European qualification. The Magpies have played 34 games so far this season, with 16 wins, 5 draws, and 13 losses, putting them at 53 points. Eddie Howe’s side has been impressive with form in their last five league matches, with three victories, one loss, and one draw, as well as their previous encounter against Burnley.
However, their away form has been inconsistent in their last five games, with two losses and three wins. The Magpies will look to bounce back from their heavy 2-0 defeat in their last away match against Crystal Palace. It is worth noting that the Magpies have been consistent in scoring goals, scoring at least once in four of their last five matches. Their defense has been poor, as they conceded a goal in all five of their last five matches. Eddie Howe’s side will look to bounce back from their last defeat and improve their defense in upcoming matches.
