League Form:

Burnley P26 W10 D6 L10 Pts 36 GF40 GA40 GD0 - Average goals per game: 3.08

Crystal Palace P26 W13 D8 L5 Pts 47 GF50 GA34 GD-10 - Average goals per game: 3.23

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Burnley have managed to sort out their abject defensive record but it has come at a price at the other end. Attack has suffered greatly and they have found scoring a bit difficult. Two key players will sit out too, star striker Charlie Austin and defender Ben Mee. Midfielder Ben Stock is suspended but fellow middle man Chris McCann is likely to return.

Crystal Palace returned to winning ways with their first victory in six matches, a barren period where they draw four times. They matched Stoke last weekend with a battling 0-0 draw in the FA Cup. That excellent result has been costly though with their two best players Wilfried Zaha and top scorer Glen Murray injured. Both will be given late fitness tests such is their importance. Another player to be missed will be midfielder Kagisho Dikgacoi, out for the African Nations. New in is Man City striker Alex Nimely, the youngster will remain with Palace till season end.

Palace should be clear favourites here and the price should be taken. Palace are in poor form but class is permanent and they showed glimpses of their old form against Wolves.

Burnley have solidified the back line and look more solid now. Three key attackers look to sit this out (Austin, Zaha and Murray - three best players and with 46 goals between them they are sure to lessen the chances of going over) Total average is 3.15 goals per game. Last 10 matches has seen 6 games go under 2.5, with a total of 23 goals for an average of 2.30 goals per game.
