Heading into November's international break with an action-packed 3-2 defeat away at fellow strugglers West Ham, Burnley have lost all of their previous six straight Premier League showdowns."
"Along with losing those seven consecutive Premier League showdowns by an aggregate score of 13-4, Burnley have recorded just a single clean sheet across any competition since the end of August. Wilson's stellar run With Brazilian marksman Rodrigo Muniz currently sidelined with a hamstring issue and veteran striker Raul Jimenez registering just a single Premier League strike over the past six weeks, many Fulham supporters were wondering were goals would come from."
Burnley will host Fulham at Turf Moor in a crucial relegation six-pointer as both clubs fight to preserve Premier League status. Burnley briefly enjoyed consecutive wins in October but have since lost seven straight league matches, conceding 13 goals and keeping only one clean sheet across competitions since August. Recent defeats to Newcastle, West Ham and Brentford have exposed defensive frailties and raised relegation fears. Fulham face attacking problems with Rodrigo Muniz sidelined and Raul Jimenez offering limited scoring, leaving supporters concerned about goal sources and results in the weeks ahead.
