8 talking points from the Premier League weekend

Home form will save Burnley from relegation

Burnley have been quite simply brilliant this season… at home.

The Clarets’ home record is truly unbelievable. Many had Burnley down as one of their favourites to go down, but Sean Dyche’s side have turned Turf Moor into a fortress.

Where Burnley have been underwhelming on the road, taking just a single point on their travels, they have now managed to accumulate 29 points from 14 home games this term.

This points total can only be bettered by Spurs (32) and Chelsea (33).

To put that into context, Chelsea and Spurs occupy the top two positions in the league. Their record is also better than Arsenal, Liverpool and both Manchester City and United.

After their 1-1 draw with Chelsea, Burnley now sit 12th in the table and look like they can set about consolidating their Premier League status for next season.

Home form will be more than enough for The Clarets, and manager Dyche can be very pleased with his players, particularly after their draw with the Champions-elect this weekend.

On another day, they may have even won the game, but all in all, it’s another good weekend for Burnley.
