In the Premier League, Burnley has lost 17 of their last 19 road games. The statistic does not auger well for the Clarets, who face Aston Villa at Villa Park on Thursday night.
After taking over as interim manager, Mike Jackson encouraged the club to a few good outcomes and achievements. However, ahead of the Premier League's final match, Burnley is on a two-game losing streak.
Aston Villa is currently 14th in the Premier League. Despite rapid gains upon Steve Gerrard's arrival at Villa Park, the team has yet to progress into a top-half of the table squad.
With the matchup remaining, the Villains sit 14th in the table. Aston Villa might end ninth if they beat their next 2 games. They would, however, require the teams ahead of them to lose points on the last day.
The encounter on Thursday is a make-up after the teams' previous meeting was rescheduled.
Aston Villa and Burnley met at Turf Moor barely a week and a half ago by chance. Aston Villa triumphed 3-1.
Burnley's current head-to-head performance with Aston Villa is encouraging. In their last six encounters with the Villains, the Clarets have a 2W-2D-2L record.
In the six games, Aston Villa defeated Burnley 9-8. Burnley was unable to win on their turf.
The game will be live on the GOtv platform.
