Fulham spent the most of the new boys, bringing in loads of players while still keeping hold of their sensational teenage star Ryan Sessegnon.

The game at Wembley offered lots of promise and lessons as Fulham caved in to defeat after Aleksander Mitrovic headed in from close range to level matters, the loss meant they still have no point to call their own yet upon their return from the championship after four years of absence from the top flight.

Burnley were the toast of last season, European duties seem to be their undoing however as they have to negotiate Olympiakos for a place in the group stages of the Europa League.

The loss at home to Watford was bizarre, no one goes to Burnley and score three outside the top teams, some even get beaten at Turf Moor, the stress of continental engagement is usurping the Clarets and they do have to watch it.

Here the hosts have only one job, beat Burnley and give your season a lift, if they fail to, doomsday bearers will be on their backs with a compass pointing southward.

The last fixture between this two was in 2016 at Craven Cottage in the English Championship, Burnley won 3-2, the last time they met in the Premier League on this ground, Fulham won 3-0.

This will be fun to the neutrals.
