Match Time & Date:

16:00
Prediction: 2-1
Burnley
Buoyed by a come-from-behind win over Brentford, Brighton will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Burnley on Matchday 16. The Seagulls are eager to start winning on a regular basis and the bookies see them as hot favourites to beat the Clarets on home soil. Former Borussia Dortmund Mahmoud Dahoud is back from suspension, while all Lamptey, Webster, Fati, Estupinan, March, and Enciso remain in the treatment room.
The visitors, on the other hand, are on a four-game losing run on the road, which is yet another reason why we are going to put our money on the hosts. The good news for the away team is that defender Jordan Beyer returns from suspension, while midfielder Luca Koleosho is out of contention after suffering an injury in a 1-0 loss to Wolverhampton. Both Jack Cork and Lyle Foster are major doubts.
Highlighted Player (Joel Veltman):
Joel Veltman is a Dutch footballer who was born in Velsen on 15 January, 1992. Veltman started his youth career at VV Ijmuiden and in 2011 he was spotted by Ajax scouts. In the 2012/2013 Eredivisie campaign he played for the first team and he made seven league appearances for the Amsterdammers back then.
The centre back, who plays as a right back as well made six appearances for Jong Ajax as well, scoring one goal for the team in the Eerste Divisie. Veltman has 8 caps for Netherlands U20 team and he made his debut for the first team in November 2013 against Colombia. He started the match and he played 90 minutes in the goalless draw with the South American side.
Joel Veltman represented the Oranje at the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. It has to be noted that the Dutch defender made 34 league appearances for Ajax in the 2015/2016 Eredivisie campaign, scoring one goal in the process. In the 2013/2014 season he won his second Eredivisie trophy with Ajax.
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.
