Last season, Burnley and Watford finished 16th and 17th with 40 points. This season, Burnley and Watford have been the two most surprising teams in the Premier League. Burnley are seventh in the Premier League with 25 points. Watford sit right behind the Clarets with 22 points. While Burnley and Watford have climbed up the table, they have done it in different ways. The Clarets have been the third-best defensive team in the league; only Manchester City and Manchester United have allowed fewer goals. The Hornets, meanwhile, have scored the sixth most goals in the Premier League.
Sean Dyche’s club has lost two of their three games, losing 1-0 to Leicester and Arsenal. While the Clarets have been very good defensively, they have struggled to score goals. Burnley’s 14 goals are the seventh fewest in the league. Chris Wood leads the club with four goals this season, one more than teammate Sam Vokes.
Much like Burnley, Watford are flawed. The Hornets might have scored 25 goals but they have also allowed 26 goals. Only Stoke and West Ham have allowed more goals than Marco Silva’s club. In their last seven games, the Hornets have picked up seven points, causing the club to drop from fourth to eighth in the standings. Richarlison and Abdoulaye Doucouré have each scored five goals this season but have combined for only one goal in their last three games. However, both players might struggle to find scoring chances against Burnley’s strong defensive shell.
