Burnley suffered their first loss of the season last time out against Sunderland, but we are backing them to respond in comfortable fashion against their rivals Blackburn. The Clarets have been dominant against their opponents, as they are unbeaten in the last nine meetings between the pair, including six consecutive victories.
Defensively they have also been strong, not conceding a goal to Blackburn in their previous five, whilst Rovers have failed to keep a clean sheet against them in their last nine.
In all competitions, Blackburn have not kept a clean sheet in their last three. However, this fixture does not tend to provide goals, with less than 2.5 goals scored in eight of the previous 10. Expect this trend to continue – Burnley 2-0 Blackburn
