Prediction: 1-0
Fulham
Burnley made a very slow start to the season, but they seem to be on top of their game at the moment. Following back-to-back wins over West Ham and Huddersfield Town in the Premier League, the Clarets defeated Barnsley in the FA Cup at the weekend, with Chris Wood scoring a late winner from the penalty spot. Burnley are determined to secure yet another Premier League survival and a win over Fulham will see them escape the danger zone. The Cottagers, on the other hand, desperately needed a win against Oldham Athletic in the FA Cup to regain a much-needed confidence, but they failed to get one. Top scorer Aleksandar Mitrovic missed a penalty in the second half of the match, but he is still widely expected to pose a big threat for Burnley defenders. However, seeing that the hosts have been in a much better form of late than the visitors, we are tempted to put our money on Sean Dyche’s charges.

Highlighted Player (Sam Vokes):
Sam Vokes began his professional career at Bournemouth and after scoring 16 goals in 54 appearances for the Cherries, he moved to Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2008. He signed a four-year deal contract with the Wolves, but was quickly sent on loan to Leeds United. After spending enjoying loan stints with Bristol City, Sheffield United, Norwich City, Burnley and Brighton, he signed a permanent contract with the Clarets for a fee of £350k. Sam Vokes impressed in the 2013/2014 Championship campaign, with the Wales international scoring 20 goals in the process. He was struggling with injuries in the 2014/2015 Premier League campaign and, as a result, he failed to find the net for Burnley in 15 appearances in the English top flight. Vokes found his best form in the 2015/2016 season and thanks to his 15 goals the Clarets returned to the English elite division. Sam Vokes was born and raised in England, but his grandfather was born in Wales and, as a result, he made his debut for the Dragons on 28 May, 2008 in a 1-0 win over Iceland. Vokes helped Wales reach the Euro 2016 semi-finals, scoring in the 3-1 quarter-final win over Belgium.
Highlighted Team (Fulham):
Fulham are a club from London that play in the Championship. The capital club dropped to the English second tier at the end of the 2013/2014 Premier League campaign after failing to impress in the elite competition. Fulham were founded in 1879 and they play their home matches at Craven Cottage. Fulham are the oldest-established club from the English capital to have played in the top flight. Fulham finished the 2008/2009 Premier League campaign in seventh place in the standings and that is considered the team’s biggest success, speaking of their participation in the Premier League. The Cottagers played in the Europa League twice and they did well to reach the FA Cup final in 1975, but they were beaten by their local rivals West Ham United in the title game (0-2). Chelsea are regarded as Fulham’s bitter rivals as well and the two teams take on each other in the North London derby.
