Team News

Burnley
Portsmouth
  • Lyle Foster and Connor Roberts both missed the game against Leeds with minor issues but should make the starting XI for the visit of Portsmouth.
  • Scott Parker will be without defender Bashir Humphreys after he was sent off in gameweek five.

Prediction

  • Burnley defended well after taking the lead through Luca Koleosho last Saturday, closing out a narrow victory against Leeds at Elland Road and bringing their hosts' unbeaten run to an end.
  • Scott Parker's side are unbeaten on home soil this season and will expect to continue that streak in gameweek six.
  • Portsmouth's concerning start to their first season back in the second tier continued at Fratton Park last weekend as they were hammered 3-0 by league leaders West Brom.
  • John Mousinho was limited in the summer transfer window and his side are still waiting for their first league win of the campaign.
