Crystal Palace vs Burnley Prediction 11 February 2026
🔊 Crystal Palace finally ended their long winless streak in the last Premier League round. Now, the Eagles aim to build on that momentum as they face relegation-zone Burnley, who have slipped back into the shadows of defeat after a series of draws. Can the hosts regain their confidence against one of the league's strugglers? Let's evaluate the odds in our editorial prediction.
Head-to-Head
📊 Crystal Palace are riding a three-match winning streak against Burnley, remaining unbeaten in their last five encounters. Over the span of 10 matches, the outlook for the Clarets isn't as bleak: the Glaziers lead with five wins to Burnley's three.
Head-to-head statistics Crystal Palace - Burnley
Crystal Palace Team Overview
Crystal Palace have finally ended their 12-match winless streak across all competitions. We'll discuss the outcome of their latest match shortly, but for now, it's worth noting that during this unfortunate run, the Eagles have slipped from the top four to 13th place. They are now 11 points adrift of the coveted European spots.
In their most recent Premier League outing, Oliver Glasner's side visited Brighton. As expected, the Londoners ceded possession to the hosts (36% to 64%), but they were more incisive in attack despite an equal number of shots (seven each): with 1.07 xG compared to 0.76 xG. This slight creative edge for the Eagles was converted into a second-half goal, which proved to be the match-winner (1-0).

Burnley Team Overview
Not too long ago, it seemed Burnley were on the rise, boasting a four-match unbeaten streak that included three draws in the Premier League. However, Scott Parker's side have reverted to their old ways in the top flight, suffering back-to-back defeats in the league. They now find themselves 11 points adrift of the crucial 17th spot.
In the 25th round of the Premier League, Burnley hosted West Ham, another team fighting for survival. Despite the Hammers gaining momentum, the hosts statistically appeared superior: they had 53% possession and a threefold advantage in shots (18 to 6). However, reality was harsher as the visitors secured a 2-0 victory with two unanswered goals.

Latest news
Crystal Palace
🎙 Crystal Palace's head coach expressed his gratitude to the fans for their support during challenging times for the club. "Last month, our fans had plenty of reasons to boo us, but they didn't. I believe this is the result of the bond we've built over the last two years between the fans and the team. They were disappointed, and we were disappointed. But they never booed us," Oliver Glasner shared.
❌ Compared to the previous matchday, Crystal Palace's injury list remains unchanged: Justin Devenny, Cheick Doucouré, Jean-Philippe Mateta, and Eddie Nketiah. However, the medical staff are assessing Nketiah's condition for potential inclusion in the squad for the upcoming fixture.
Burnley
🎙 During the match against West Ham, chants calling for the departure of Burnley's head coach could be heard. Scott Parker responded: “The only way to change the situation in this world, the only way to succeed in what we do, is to win. That's our world, and I understand it well. It's not easy when you're competing in the Premier League, but that's what we're striving for.”
❌ Burnley's struggles with results are compounded by roster issues. Currently, five players are sidelined: Zeki Amdouni, Josh Cullen, Connor Roberts, Jordan Beyer, and Mike Tresor Ndayishimiye. In the penultimate round, Axel Tuanzebe joined them, but his ankle injury is not as severe; the defender could return for the upcoming match.
🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards
The referee for this match is Farai Hallam. In the current Premier League season, he has officiated just one game, issuing four yellow cards. In the Championship, his average over the last 10 matches is 3.5 yellow cards per game. This suggests that the referee is well-versed in handling tough contests and won't resort to frequent whistles. In their last head-to-head encounter, neither team received a booking. Therefore, a bet on total yellow cards under 3.5 seems reasonable.
⚽️ Goal Prediction
The Eagles, despite a prolonged rough patch, remain one of the Premier League's defensive stalwarts. Crystal Palace are fifth in terms of goals conceded, with only 29 in 25 matches. Burnley have failed to score in their last two league games. Their creative struggles were particularly evident in their most recent home match, where despite dominating in shots, none resulted in goals. We anticipate that finding the net at Selhurst Park will be even tougher. Our prediction: both teams to score (no).
🚩 Corner Prediction
Crystal Palace's 3-4-2-1 formation, with two playmakers and a lone striker, doesn't typically result in extensive wing play. Consequently, the Eagles find it challenging to earn a high number of set pieces from the corners. For instance, in 9 out of their last 10 home matches, they have won no more than six corners. Based on this trend, we suggest betting on Crystal Palace total corners under 6.5.
Editorial Prediction
Both teams have been delivering inconsistent results for quite some time, but Crystal Palace have shown signs of progress after the previous Premier League round. It's too early to talk about a full recovery, but with no distractions from other tournaments, the Eagles desperately need to pick up points in the league. And what better opportunity than against another team facing relegation threats from the English elite? Especially since Burnley's streak of four unbeaten games has quickly fizzled out. We anticipate a pragmatic Crystal Palace home victory. Predicted scoreline - 1-0.
