Crystal Palace vs Burnley prediction
Oliver Glasner appears destined to depart Crystal Palace this summer and things have gone off the rails down in Croydon over the last couple of months. However, the Eagles did manage to edge past arch-rivals Brighton and Hove Albion by a goal to nil at the AMEX Stadium down on the south coast at the weekend.
They now face a Burnley side that begin the match day sitting 11 points adrift of safety. Their slight improvement over the turn of the year has since given way to some woeful performances of late with a 3-0 defeat to Sunderland last week being backed up by a 2-0 defeat at home to West Ham United the other day.
These are two of the lower scoring sides in the division, with only Wolves having scored fewer than the pair, and so a low-scoring clash is to be expected with Palace the firm favourites with their home advantage.
