Burnley versus stoke predictions

Wile E Coyote · Post by **Wile E Coyote** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 5:11 pm

Having seen off watford with three goals all onside but only being allowed one, stoke will be next in our firing line.
I can see us scoring at least three against this lot. Don't think Mark Hughes will have enough time to individually rap each of their hapless players on the knuckles with a wooden ruler for that inept performance against spurs yesterday.
We might even score five just to add to their woes.
Definately a game where Barnes will be needed. We will be far too good for them all over the pitch. They're not as fat as watford, but they play into our hands whatever formation they opt for. Joe Allen is the only shining light in a very lumpen team.

4-0. It’s been a while.

Saxoman · Post by **Saxoman** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 5:22 pm

Hughes to get back to basics, 1-1.

MACCA · Post by **MACCA** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 5:23 pm

1-2 Diouf and Shawcross, before a Hendrick goal late on sets up a grand stand finish, but Stoke hold on.

jedi_master · Post by **jedi_master** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 5:24 pm

I think Stoke are rank bad, and this game will see Hughes gone.

2-0.

I'm normally slightly pessimistic but I can see us winning 3-0 or 3-1.

claretblue · Post by **claretblue** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 5:43 pm

3 - 0

Saxoman · Post by **Saxoman** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 5:46 pm

3-0.. 4-0.. When have you EVER won by that amount under dyche? Cant even take full advantage against 10 men.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 5:49 pm

Just need to watch Shaqiri very tricky.

2-0.

I'll take another scrappy 1-0.

Caernarfon_Claret · Post by **Caernarfon_Claret** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 5:51 pm

Remember Spurs are a team who beat Stoke by four goals all the time these days, we don't. 2-0 at the most, but if we don't turn up we'll lose.

irrelevant saxo, when have we ever been so good, top four beckoning for us, so we might just behave like a top 4 side and hammer them.

There were a few 3-0s, 4-0s and a 5-0 during our last promotion season.

Chelsea at Stamford Bridge this season.. Oh wait no, that was just the halftime score.

Why do we play Spurs before we play United?

You'd think you'd play all fixtures before you play reverse fixtures.

Is it so boxing day game is a local affair?

Sunderland last season was 3 or 4 nil.

As for the title winning season, we hit 5 at MK Dons away and seemed to score 3 or 4 at home 3 games in a row I thought.

You seemed to win most 1-0 despite the opposition having all the possession most games.. Don't rewrite history.

Caernarfon_Claret · Post by **Caernarfon_Claret** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 6:04 pm

Scored a few away to Brentford that season

Yes you're right, terrible lack of goals in Dec/Jan....

Caernarfon_Claret · Post by **Caernarfon_Claret** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 6:08 pm

Brentford and Huddersfield away both 3-1 wins that season (agaon the goal we conceded might make these wins irrelevant)

1-0 Burnley, that will do nicely!

To say he spends a lot of time watching Burnley, he has a poor memory of just how good we were when clinching the title..

Be fair to Saxoman it's easy to score goals in The Championship and League 1.

72 goals we scored when winning the Championship (=1)

It's very difficult to defend well in the premier league.

If anyone thinks we're going to walk any games this season they are getting carried away.

Maintain our maximum effort approach and we have a good chance of another win. Lower our standards at all and we could easily get beat.

Be a tough game Tuesday I reckon.

Is this some sort of reverse psychology? As the last 2 games you have predicted we lose against Watford n Stoke ffs!

im goin for 2-0 clarets..

EarbyClaret · Post by **EarbyClaret** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 7:09 pm

Would be delighted with another hard fought 1-0

Without Heaton, Lowton, Mee and Brady the rest of the squad have stepped-up fantastically but don't think we're set up to dominate or heavily out-score anyone. Until we either get players back fit or can invest in new ones it's more about the points than the eye-catching quality of performances.

Did you even go to the match you pr-ick ?

We made 9 changes that night - far fewer than your joke of a team did.

The game might of only been 2-0 but it was certainly a 2-0 hammering - it was men against boys. You hardly got in our half and if we could have been arsed we could have took you to the cleaners but guess we felt a little embarrassed for you so just played keep ball whilst you ran around like chickens (rather ironically !!)

The only time you got near any of our players is when your belmtard supporters assaulted one of our players.

Now seriously why don't you f-uck off.

The fact I've never ever got a correct score and I'm yet to see us lose at home this season means I will stick to my usual routines until it fails me.

I'll go 2-0 Burnley. 1-0 originally came into my head, but Stoke have been leaking goals for fun and I think we'll have many opportunities.

Iloveyoubrady · Post by **Iloveyoubrady** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 8:30 pm

4-0
Wood Hat trick and Gudmundsson.

Its about a year since Sunderland, our only real hammering of the opposition - and I hope we do it again.

Stoke aren't as bad as Spurs made them look and Hughes won't have taken it lying down either. Expect a reaction and no push over and another scrappy 1-0 to the Burnley will do nicely as overconfidence on here is most often followed by humble pie!
