Burnley
Burnley lost some of their momentum in the previous round after a 0-0 draw away with Blackpool. That was the Clarets’ third draw in five matches as boss Vincent Kompany’s boys seem to have eased down their surge toward the title. However, Burnley’s defense showed a 52.5% improvement after conceding 0.38 goals in the last eight games.
Wigan
The last place Wigan want to be playing at this stage of the season is Turf Moor unless they have a very firm defensive strategy. The Latics’ away record is quite dreadful having not won in their last 12 trips in all competitions. Moreover, Wigan lost three of their seven away games against the top ten teams.
Burnley: Muric; Roberts, Ekdal, Beyer, Vitinho; Brownhill, Cullen; Tella, Gudmundsson, Zaroury; Barnes;
