  • Fulham are winless in their last five Premier League games against Burnley (D2 L3), since a 4-2 home win in August 2018.

  • Fulham are unbeaten in their last 11 Premier League games against promoted sides (W6 D5), winning each of the last four in a row. The Cottagers have never won five consecutive top-flight games against promoted teams before.

  • Burnley have lost six consecutive Premier League matches. The Clarets last had a longer losing run in the league in January/February 1995 in the second tier (eight in a row), while in the top-flight they haven’t lost more than six games in a row since between March and September 1895 (8).

  • Fulham have lost eight of their 15 Premier League matches this season (W5 D2). In three of the previous four instances they’ve lost that many at this stage they have been relegated – in 2013-14 (10), 2018-19 (10) and 2020-21 (8). The exception was in 2004-05 (9, finished 13th).

  • After conceding just 16 goals in 46 Championship games last season, Burnley have shipped 30 in 15 games this season in the Premier League.
