Team News

Burnley
Aston Villa
  • Jordan Beyer will be assessed for the Clarets, who are likely to move to a four-man defence.
  • Michael Obafemi and Darko Churlinov miss out, while Anass Zaroury is suspended.
  • Aston Villa still have a raft of injury concerns, with no fewer than six players absent for Sunday's trip to Burnley.
  • As such, Unai Emery should name an unchanged XI from the side that started the 4-0 win over Everton last weekend.
  • Nicolo Zaniolo has joined on loan for the rest of the season and is an option.

Prediction

  • Burnley fell to an opening day 3-0 loss to defending champions Manchester City, while their game at Luton last week was postponed. As such, they have had two weeks to prepare for this one.
  • Aston Villa responded to their 5-1 defeat at Newcastle with a 4-0 win over relegation candidates Everton last time out. Their away form stemming back to last season doesn't make for great reading with the Villans winless in five on their travels.
  • The Clarets will find it easier to play Villa than Manchester City this weekend, and will fancy their chances of at least a point.
