Burnley team overview
Burnley have been a team that constantly moved between the Premier League and the Championship in the previous years. Last year, the Clarets managed to secure promotion and are only looking to survive. Unfortunately, their season doesn't look promising at the moment, considering they are in 19th place with 10 points from 15 rounds. And it seems they are only getting worse and worse as the season progresses.
Interestingly, despite their awful season thus far, the Clarets still haven't sacked coach Scott Parker. Right now, he is the second-favorite to be sacked by a PL team, with the odds of 4.5. The manager with the lowest odds at the moment is Arne Slot, with the odds between 2.0 and 2.1.
For the upcoming game against Fulham, Kyle Walker and Lucas Pires will miss due to suspensions, while Zeki Amdouni, Jordan Beyer, Connor Roberts, and Axel Tuanzebe will remain sidelined due to injuries.

Fulham team overview
Since gaining promotion to the Premier League in the 2021/22 season, Fulham have been a mid-table team in the following three seasons, finishing between 10th and 13th spot. This season, the Cottagers haven't been as good, considering they are just four points away from the danger zone. Thus far, they've collected 17 points in 15 rounds - 1.13 per game, which is around 0.3 ppg fewer than last season. So, this game against one of the worst teams in the league is highly important to create some gap between them and the danger zone.
According to credible sources, Ryan Sessegnon is dealing with a hamstring injury and will most likely miss his second game in a row with it. Moreover, Rodrigo Muniz and Antonee Robinson will remain sidelined with their injuries.

Prediction
Burnley are in bad form, losing six in a row. However, they have scored in three of them. Moreover, they have scored in nine out of the past 12 games. They scored against some really good teams like Manchester City, Aston Villa, and Newcastle, and should do well against Fulham, who have zero clean sheets in eight road matches!
Fulham have been excellent for this type of bet recently, as we saw both teams scoring in the last three matches. Their defense has been atrocious recently, allowing eight goals in those past eight matches - 2.7 per game. Also, they have been awesome for this type of bet on the road, as both teams scored in 71% of their PL matches. Only Burnley and MU have been better on the road for this type of bet.
Considering all the above, but especially both teams' terrible defensive performances, we expect both teams to score at least once in this PL game.
4 Reasons why both teams should score
- Burnley had one clean sheet in the last 15 games
- Both teams scored in nine of the past 12 matches - 75%
- Fulham haven't had a clean sheet in eight road games
- Both teams scored in 71% of their road PL games
