Team Form: Burnley
The local Team had mixed results recently across various competitions. They have won one out of their last six matches while losing another and drawing four games during that period. Their goal-scoring form has been relatively low as they managed only three goals in those six matches while conceding just twice.
Currently sitting fourth in the Championship standings with 24 points from 14 matches played so far this season, Burnley seems to be performing well overall despite some inconsistencies lately. In their latest fixture against West Bromwich Albion away from home ended in a goalless draw.
At Turf Moor specifically, Burnley remains unbeaten after playing six league matches at home this season – winning three and drawing three without suffering defeat yet.
Team Form: Swansea City
Swansea City also enters this matchup following inconsistent performances recently – particularly when playing away from home where they’ve struggled more than usual compared to other venues.
Out of their last six fixtures across all competitions (home and away), Swansea secured victories on two occasions, suffered defeats twice, and drew the remaining pair of matches. In terms of goals scored and conceded away from home during this period, they managed to find the back of the net three times while conceding an equal number.
Currently positioned ninth in the Championship table with 19 points after 14 games played, Swansea has shown glimpses of promise but needs to improve their consistency if they aim to climb higher in the standings. Their most recent match at home against Watford resulted in a narrow 1-0 victory courtesy of Myles Peart-Harris’ goal.
