Mark Lawrenson has gone for a 2-1 Burnley win!
It is a tougher game than many on here believe, they will be desperate for the points given their start, and factoring in our flakyness in the 2nd half against West Ham.
But still given all of that....how by Zeus's tits did he arrive at that prediction?
Love that - but a little tweak if you don't mind...Lloris1-3
Aurier - Sanchez - Alderweireld - Reguilon
Lo Celso - Hojbjerg - Ndombele
Bale - Kane - Son

FFS :mourfacepalm: Dreading this one. Actually chose to work Mon night to avoid most of it. Will catch the last 30mins when hopefully we're 3-0 up, in control, comfortable, and nothing can go wrong !I think we've only lost 1 of our last 12 games against Burnley.
And Mourinho has never lost to Burnley in his career.
They have 1 point this season and 1 win in their last 8 league games.
We've lost 1 in our last 11 league games.
What could go wrong?
With you. Maybe 4-1 though - got to let one slip in.Think we will smash the 4-0, just cant see them getting anything unless we play extremely poorly
I think we will be clever enough to create and find space to hurt them, but I agree our defending is garbage and needs to improve which if it does puts us in amongst the chasers.We are certain to lose this game if we defend the way we have in previous matches, Burnley are not going to play football they are just going to hoof it up and win free kicks. If we cut out the stupid fouls and clear the ball properly we should be looking at 3 points.
We always struggle against them so this is a big test for us, especially after West Ham. We have to be ruthless and manage the game properly.
Lawerson is a wanker. Biased dipper clownMark Lawrenson has gone for a 2-1 Burnley win!
