Prediction: 2-0
Blackburn Rovers
Burnley will be aiming to recover from a 1-0 loss to Sunderland when they take on Blackburn Rovers in the Championship round 4. The Clarets are eyeing their third win of the season and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. The likes of Mike Tresor, Nathan Redmond, Hannes Delcroix, Hjalmar Ekdal, Louis Jordan Beyer, Sander Berge, Ameen Al Dakhil, and Aaron Ramsey are injured for the hosts.
The Seasiders, on the other hand, are sitting in third place ahead of the trip to Burnley. Blackburn Rovers, though, continue with their old habit of producing much better showings at home than on the travels and given Burnley’s attacking potential, home win should definitely be considered. In their last meeting at Turf Moor Burnley rolled over Blackburn 3-0. Defender Scott Wharton continues to miss out with injury for the visiting team.
Highlighted Team (Burnley):
Burnley were one of the founding members of the Football League back in 1888. The Clarets did remarkably well to win the FA Cup trophy back in 1914 and the club owners have been trying to bring glory days back to Turf Moor ever since.
Burnley defeated Liverpool in the 1913/1914 FA Cup final and, no doubt, this is regarded as the greatest achievement in the club’s history. The Clarets finished the 2015/2016 Championship campaign in top position in the standings and, as a result, they will participate in the English Premier League in the 2016/2017 season.
Burnley play their home games at Turf Moor and the capacity of the stadium is 21,401. The Clarets have won two Community Shield trophies so far, in 1960 and 1973, but they have yet to clinch the Premier League title. Claret is the dominant colour of the team’s home shirts.
