Burnley have climbed to 15th in the Premier League table after picking up their form of late, though they have lost three of their last five league matches.

All of their last five matches have finished 1-0, coming via a defeat from Leeds, a win over Sheffield United and back-to-back losses against Manchester United and West Ham. In their last league match, Burnley ended Liverpool’s unbeaten run at Anfield with a 1-0 victory.

Ashley Barnes scored the only goal of the game from the penalty spot as Burnley played out yet another low-scoring match.
