SHEFFIELD UNITED vs. BURNLEY

Burnley have won a greater proportion of their total points in the Premier League this season against current bottom half teams than any other team (16/20 – 80%) whilst they are unbeaten against fellow newly promoted clubs (W2 D1), including a 5-0 win against Sheffield United in December.
