Burnley hosts Bournemouth in the English FA Cup 1/8 finals. The match will be played on Tuesday, February 9th at Turf Moor (Burnley)
Burnley did not have any problems with Fulham at the previous stage. And what can prevent the Clarets from winning this time? Current shape and struggle for survival in the Premier League? This is not true. Of course, Burnley will retain its place in the elite if it continues to show such a level of the game. Yes, the Clarets lost to Manchester City and Chelsea and could not beat Brighton, but the home field is always an advantage for them. If we don’t mention defeats to the top clubs, the hosts lost only to Southampton at Turf Moor. Burnley cannot boast of high goal statistics. But you don't have to score a lot to win.

In the fall, Bournemouth was almost the main candidate for promotion from the Championship, but now the team is in a protracted crisis. Recently, it has been able to gain only one victory. With such results, the team runs the risk of being knocked out of the playoff zone. But most importantly, the Cherries have conceded at least a goal in eight matches in a row. On average, Woodgate's squad conceded a goal per match and completely stopped scoring.
Burnley is more experienced, plays in the Premier League, and is in relatively good shape. The team has problems with the leaders of the Premier League, but there is no such thing with the middle peasants. Bournemouth has clearly lost the thread of the game. Even in the previous stages, the Cherries had problems with representatives of the lower divisions and conceded in almost every match. Most likely, the Clarets will go further, but we recommend betting that they will at least not lose in regulation time.
Prediction for the match: Burnley to win with +0.5 handicap
