Burnley: Players in focus
Zeki Amdouni on sparkling form

Luca Koleosho needs to step up
The absence of top scorer Lyle Foster due to injury puts more pressure on Luca Koleosho to come up with a strong performance. The young shoulders of the American will be seeking the first goal of the season. So far, he has had a hand in just one goal.
Johann Gudmundsson leading the example
The organisational work in the middle of the park will rely heavily on Johann Gudmundsson, who has been a regular for the team in the last few weeks. The 33-year-old comes with improving numbers of 1.2 key passes per match and an 83.5% passing success rate.
Crystal Palace: Players in focus
Jordan Ayew still shining strong
Jordan Ayew produced a sparkling performance as Crystal Palace almost snatched something from the game against Tottenham at Selhurst Park. The 32-year-old will be looking to build on his first league goal of the season.
Odsonne Edouard offering the flair
Odsonne Edouard is the top scorer in the Crystal Palace squad with four goals. Even though he has not been on the scoresheet for the last four league matches, the offensive contribution provided by the Frenchman will be key if Palace are to get three points
Cheick Doucoure keeping things under check
Cheick Doucoure has been a linchpin in the centre of the park for Crystal Palace. His performances have been crucial to the successes achieved by the team. In his nine league matches, the 23-year-old has had an 86.9% passing accuracy and a staggering 3.4 tackles per match.
Final Prediction
Despite the excellent recent record in this fixture for the host, the Burnley vs Crystal Palace stats will expect a tight match that does not involve a lot of goals even if the game produces a winner. Burnley are likely to get the edge in this match with Palace lacking a profound goalscorer.
