Tournament: The English Premier League.
On Saturday, in frames of the 22nd match day of the EPL will be held the match between Burnley and Fulham. Both teams are spending very terrible season and that is why they have got what they deserve – the very bottom part of the tournament table.
Burnley after the perfectly spent last season demonstrates awful football. The Eurocup fairy tale has ended very soon. In the EPL the team of Sean Dyche is doing badly too. But, after the 3 defeats in a row from Tottenham, Arsenal and Everton, the Clarets have won over West Ham and Huddersfield. That has helped them to leave the relegation zone.
If last season Burnley was famous by its defense, than now only Fulham has missed more goals than the Clarets. The Cottagers after the arrival of Claudio Ranieri have lifted up their heads but this is not enough to start gaining the points and to leave the bottom of the table.
In last five matches the Londoners have gained only one victory, having won the rivals from Huddersfield. To tell the truth, the Cottagers have lost only two times, having lost to West Ham and Arsenal. Now Fulham takes the last but one line, being behind Cardiff and the saving line with 4 points.
It is obvious, that the team of Claudio Ranieri can’t lose. However, Burnley will try to prolong the winning streak up to 3 matches.
