Week 21 brings us a match on Nov 13th, where Burnley hosts Blackburn Rovers at Turf Moor in a clash of the Championship. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 10 degrees, a perfect day for football. 1st placed Burnley is fresh off their 2-5 loss against Sheffield United. Manuel Benson struck first for Burnley in the 17th minute, then Iliman Ndiaye tied it up for Sheffield United in the 30th minute But fortunately they were able to complete the comaback in the 64th minute on a goal by Jack Robinson. With 21 points in their last 10 matches Burnley should be reasonably happy with their performance, while blackburn Rovers sits at 2nd place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 1-0 shutout win against Huddersfield Town. Ben Brereton struck first for Blackburn Rovers in the 35th minute on a feed from Harry Pickering, and with that single goal the scoring was complete. Neither team could manage anything else In the end, Huddersfield Town couldn’t muster any offence and Blackburn Rovers ran away with the shutout win. Blackburn Rovers should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 21 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season.
Ben Brereton has been the most effective weapon for Blackburn Rovers lately. The English attacker has netted two goals in his last five matches. Burnley is glad to have Manuel Benson in top form. In the last 5 matches the midfielder has scored five goals.
