Our prediction for this Championship match:
Sunday’s football game between Burnley and Swansea City will bring down the curtain on the Championship round 15. The Clarets have been struggling up front of late, with the team failing to score in the last three league matches, but this game could be the turning point for Scott Parker’s troops. Bear in mind, though, that all Beyer, Delcroix, Ekdal, Foster, Ramsey, Manuel Hedilazio, Redmond, and Worrall should miss out with injuries for the home team.
The South Wales outfit, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Watford and Oxford United. Swansea, though, were hammered by Burnley (0-4) in their last meeting at Turf Moor, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on the home side. All Ginnelly, Fisher, and Eom are out of contention with injuries for the away team, while veteran midfielder Joe Allen is pushing for a start.
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.
