Burnley heads to the South Coast on Saturday, urgently needing points. Scott Parker’s team has lost seven straight Premier League games.
Another loss would tie a club record for consecutive defeats. Currently, Burnley is 19th in the standings, four points away from safety. Their away performance has been poor, allowing an average of nearly three goals per game.
Zian Flemming has scored in four consecutive away matches, but Burnley has lost each one. Parker must fix the defensive issues if the team hopes to turn the season around.
Burnley team news
Burnley will be without three key players due to the Africa Cup of Nations: Axel Tuanzebe, Lyle Foster, and Hannibal Mejbri. On the bright side, Lucas Pires and Kyle Walker are back from suspension and can play.
Injury concerns include Zeki Amdouni, Jordan Beyer, and Connor Roberts, which requires Parker to adjust the lineup. Josh Cullen and Florentino are likely to lead in midfield. Upfront, Zian Flemming will aim to keep scoring alongside Jacob Bruun Larsen and Jaidon Anthony.
