THE PREDICTION
Championship side Bournemouth ended a run of four straight league defeats at the weekend with a 3-2 win over Birmingham under caretaker boss Jonathan Woodgate. This should give them a mental boost as they head to Turf Moor for this FA Cup fifth round tie vs Burnley. The Clarets currently sit 17th in the Premier League table and so a possibility may be that Sean Dyche sees this match as an unnecessary distraction from the main goal this season of avoiding relegation. However, with injuries blighting the Burnley squad, Dyche will likely have no choice but to play his strongest possible team here. Despite the two sides being separated by a division, a close encounter is expected and it wouldn’t be a surprise if for the second time this season, an FA Cup match involving Burnley is decided in extra time.
