Having established themselves a mid-table Premier League outfit in recent years, Burnley aren’t ones to be treated with a wave of the hand. Last season, they worked really hard to muster a tenth-place finish on the standings.

This time around, the Clarets would be hoping for more of the same as the season unfolds gradually. Unfortunately, Dyche’s men haven’t been at their races so far, and are deep in relegation waters. They will be gunning for victory here to move clear of the drop-zone.

Aston Villa vs Burnley Team News

Shambolic in their display throughout last season, Aston Villa can count themselves very lucky to still be plying their trade in the English top-flight. They had been inches away from relegation, before a late surge saw them beat the drop.

In their final game against West Ham, they needed a point to remain up in this division. Laying blood and sweat bare on the pitch, the Villa salvaged a point to climb out of the bottom-zone. As the referee brought the game to a close, the players celebrated their survival in grand style.

With a new season already up and running, Aston Villa seem to be in no mood to get caught up in any form of relegation battle. They are tearing it up in the league, and even giving heavyweights a run for their money.

You bet that no English side will be relishing a game against Dean Smith’s beasts at the moment. From 10 matches, Villa have garnered a whopping 18 points to occupy tenth-place on the standings. Last seen in action against Wolves, the Lions dug really deep to see off the opposition.

A stop-start game disrupted by numerous fouls; the referee brandished two red cards – one for either side. It wasn’t until very late in the game before the deadlock was broken – Villa’s El Ghazi stepping up to fire his side to victory from the penalty spot.

High on confidence, Aston Villa will be fancy their chances of securing another win in this upcoming contest against struggling Burnley. With only two wins from their opening eleven matches, the Clarets’ problems are bare for everyone to see.

Currently placed 17^th on the table, they gave Arsenal a hiding in their previous fixture, recording a vital 1-0 win to send the Gunners sinking. Showing grit and resilience in that fixture, Dyche will be spurring his boys on to replicate such solid performance come Thursday evening.

Aston Villa vs Burnley Predictions

With fans still barred from Villa Park, the Lions will have to play another Premier League behind closed doors but we have seen that they thrive well under these conditions. To be frank, they aren’t on a good run of form currently, winning only two of their previous six league games.

That said, you get the feeling Burnley will be burned out from their thrilling clash against Arsenal on Sunday. Hence, their players are unlikely to be 100% fit for this game. We expect Aston Villa to capitalize on this to take this Burnley side to the cleaners.
