Match preview
Burnley host Derby at Turf Moor in a clash between two sides currently occupying spots in the Championship relegation zone. Burnley sit at the bottom of the table in 24th place without a league win, taking three points from six matches through three draws and three defeats. Derby sit in 22nd position with four points from seven outings, having registered one victory alongside five losses.
Burnley have been consistent at both ends of the pitch, scoring in all six of their Championship matches while failing to keep a single clean sheet and conceding 13 goals in total. Derby have had greater difficulties in attack, failing to score in three of their seven fixtures, though they did pick up their sole win on the road at Portsmouth.
