Underlying Stats

The attack

Burnley have scored just 32 goals this season, only Norwich have scored fewer. However, in the last six Gameweeks they have scored 10 goals. This is eighth across the Premier League clubs and a marked improvement on the season as a whole.

Manager Sean Dyche was sacked just ahead of Gameweek 33. Between Gameweek 1 and 32 Burnley managed 307 goal attempts, the fewest in the Premier League. Gameweeks 33-36 has seen them create 70 chances, only three clubs have created more in this period.

Budget enabler Josh Brownhill is top for attacking returns since Gameweek 33 with three. Only three Burnley players have more than one attacking return in this period.

The defence

However, the injury to James Tarkowski could be an issue for Burnley. Tarkowski was substituted in Gameween 33 with a hamstring issue and is currently flagged in the game. With Ben Mee also injured Burnley could have a central defensive headache ahead of the Double Gameweek.

The Fantasy Football Scout team news section is the best place to follow player availability ahead of Gameweek 37.

Since Gameweek 33 Nathan Collins is Burnley’s most threatening defender with eight goal attempts. Only Weghorst and McNeil have had more than the defender. Connor Roberts has created the most chances of all the defenders in the same period with six.

Ownership ahead of Double Gameweek 36

Weghorst is Burnley’s most heavily owned player, however he is owned by just 4.5% of the game. He is however owned by 22.08% of the top 10k.

This makes owning any Burnley player a differential ahead of Double Gameweek 37.

Overall

Burnley are one of only five teams to double in Gameweek 37. This makes them an attractive option on paper. However, the fixtures look difficult for a clean sheet with matches against Spurs and Aston Villa. Investing in the likes of Cornet or Brownhill however could be wise, given Burnley need to score goals to try and stay in the league.
