Team news, stats, predictions and how to follow the Premier League this week, including Thursday's match between Burnley and Southampton.
Team news: Ashley Westwood was stretchered off with a serious ankle injury as Burnley held West Ham to a hard-fought draw at the weekend.
Club captain Ben Mee, Erik Pieters (both knee) and Johann Berg Gudmundsson (calf) are also sidelined and set to be ruled out for the rest of April.
Southampton will travel to Turf Moor with plenty of "options", manager Ralph Hasenhüttl advocated ahead of the rearranged tie. Following victory over Arsenal last time out, Saints once again have a full squad of players to select from.
Jones Knows prediction...
Burnley's change of mentality to playing "must-win" football in the last three matches has seen a positive effect on how many goals there will be in their games. Games have been much more open affairs with their past three seeing seven goals scored and a total expected goals figure of 13.45 when collating both teams. That xG figure tells the whole story.
How the 1-1 draw with West Ham stayed under 2.5 was all about the sheer brilliance of Nick Pope and general wasteful nature of Maxwell Cornet from 12 yards.
Southampton are a reliable team when it comes to goal heavy matches, too. Their away games this season have averaged 3.27 goals per 90 minutes with 60 per cent of those matches producing four or more goals.
The markets have the goal line around 2.5 goals, which I think is too low. This means backing overs is the way to go.
