Comments:
League position: 4th Excepting the first two weeks of this season, Burnley had now reached their highest position in the top division since March 1975. The Clarets had now won eight games in the Premier League at Turf Moor in 2017 and seven of them had been by a 1-0 scoreline. They had now kept six clean sheets in their nine home games in the Premier League so far in this season and conceded only three goals.Goals:
