Burnley host Fulham on Saturday evening knowing that another defeat could be catastrophic for their survival hopes.
Scott Parker’s side are currently 19th in the table. Furthermore, they are on a historic six-game losing streak. This is their worst run in the top flight since 1895.
However, the Clarets can take comfort from their incredible home record against Saturday’s opponents. Burnley have not lost a home league game to Fulham since 1951. Therefore, Parker will hope this psychological advantage can spark a vital turnaround. A win is essential to close the five-point gap to safety.
Burnley team news
Scott Parker is navigating a severe selection crisis in defence. Experienced full-backs Kyle Walker and Lucas Pires are both suspended. Consequently, the manager must reshuffle his backline. Oliver Sonne is expected to start on the right, while Quilindschy Hartman likely comes in on the left.
The midfield is also depleted with Hannibal Mejbri serving a suspension. Furthermore, the injury list includes key names like Zeki Amdouni and Jordan Beyer. Axel Tuanzebe is also unlikely to feature. In attack, Parker faces a decision between Lyle Foster and Zian Flemming. Foster is expected to get the nod despite pressure from Flemming.

Burnley predicted XI: Dúbravka; Sonne, Ekdal, Estève, Hartman; Ugochukwu, Cullen, Florentino; Tchaouna, Foster, Anthony
