Burnley, Recent FormBurnley have set themselves up nicely for this match by securing a 3-1 home win against Middlesbrough in their previous league match. Their share of possession in that meeting was 60%, while racking up 11 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Middlesbrough, who had 4 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Vincent Kompany will be very satisfied with his team's ability to find the net, with 16 goals in their last 6 matches; however, he will be less pleased with his back line, who have lost 9 goals during those same matches. Their ongoing goal scoring streak now stands at 20 games in a row.
They've had a good run of home form recently, with 6 straight wins in a row and are on an unbeaten run of 12 games.
With 6 goals scored in Brentford's last 6 outings in the league, Benson Manuel has shown a great run of form in finding the back of the net.
Birmingham City, Recent FormBirmingham City will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 3-2 win in their home outing against Reading. In that game they recorded 36 of the possession, with 9 attempts on goal, 6 on target. Their opponents found the target on 8 of their 20 shots on goal.
Manager John Eustace will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, with them having managed to score 8 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 7 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. Chalking up goals on the road is something their fans have become accustomed to, with them hitting the net in 4 of their last 6 matches.
Birmingham will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
Scott Hogan will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Burnley in this match, having already scored 5 goals in his last 6 away games for Birmingham City.
In the last match between these two, goals were scored on both sides, with the game ending in a 1-1 draw.
The Blues defence has struggled against Burnley in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 15 games.
Burnley have built up an impressive record in the league against Birmingham, going unbeaten in their last 5 meetings.
With no real injury worries, Burnley manager Vincent Kompany will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
With only Harlee Dean (Calf) and Przemysław Płacheta (Shin) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, John Eustace will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
