Burnley is set to face Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Wednesday as they seek to break a 16-match winless streak and boost their chances of survival.

Currently in 19th place, Burnley finds itself in a tough spot, sitting 11 points clear of the bottom but significantly behind safety. Manager Scott Parker witnessed a 2–0 defeat at home against West Ham on Saturday, leaving the team with only 15 points from 25 matches. This season, they have managed just one away win, a 3–2 triumph over Wolves in October. A positive result today is crucial to avoid falling further behind Nottingham Forest and to ensure their chances of staying up.

Burnley Team News

Scott Parker’s squad is dealing with a major injury crisis, missing key players like Josh Cullen and Zeki Amdouni due to knee injuries. As a result, Lesley Ugochukwu and Florentino Luís are expected to take on midfield roles. In a bit of good news, James Ward-Prowse is set to make his full debut. Zian Flemming will be leading the attack, aiming to increase his tally of five goals this season.

Martin Dúbravka will be in goal, supported by a defense that includes veteran Kyle Walker and Maxime Estève. Bashir Humphreys and Lucas Pires will round out the backline. In midfield, Hannibal Mejbri and Marcus Edwards will aim to create scoring opportunities. Importantly, Burnley has conceded a league-high six goals in the first 10 minutes of games this season, making a strong start essential.
