Hello and welcome to our live coverage of Burnley's Championship clash with Swansea City. The Clarets arrive on the back of a 1-0 win at Coventry City last ...
I said before the game it would be a good test because we have seen every style of play and faced every style of play and that is good for a coach because it gives you a reference point for the next games. I am happy about that and our team is still a work in progress, a lot of young players who have improvement in them. It is always a mix between being comfortable on the ball and making use of the ball to get to the spaces where you can hurt the opposition. He caused a very difficult problem to solve for the opposition because if his runs in behind and he was also able to hold onto the ball which I thought he did very well, perhaps even the best he has done it for us. My key concern in every game is to be threatening, and we were when we didn't have the ball, which is really important, I wouldn't want to defend without having the threat, and we were threatening when we had the ball especially as well. From then it became something of a non contest with the result already a formality.
Vincent Kompany is looking forward to seeing how Burnley measure up against another of the Championship's possession-based sides.
It's interesting for us to face something completely different and I think after that we would've played all the styles that are around in this league.” [Burnley](/topic/burnley) are currently unbeaten in 10 league games while the visitors have racked up 15 points from their last six fixtures in the Championship, beating [West Brom](/topic/west-brom) and [Watford](/topic/watford) away from home in that sequence. [Turf Moor](/topic/turf-moor) will pit two of the division’s top six teams — in both possession and points — against each other as the Clarets entertain [Swansea City](/topic/swansea-city).
The Swans' four-game winning run was brought to an abrupt end at Turf Moor.
Swansea just look to keep the ball for a spell now. And they scored with their first effort on target as Ian Maatsen crossed to Vitinho who was left unmarked at the back post to have the simple task of heading into the net. Martin's side improved after the restart, but after failing to take their chances, they were guilty of more woeful defensively play as Rodriguez netted his second to ensure Burnley stretched their unbeaten home run in the Championship this term to seven games while Swansea had Joel Piroe sent off to cap off a wretched day. Far too sloppy from the visitors. Piroe then had a shot blocked after being picked out by Sorinola before Cabango headed straight at Muric from a corner. They were relieved the deficit wasn't greater as Benda reacted well to tip Josh Brownhill's driven effort over the bar. But just as they looked to be finding their rhythm again, they were undone by more sloppy defending. They went into the contest having scored the most goals in the opening 15 minutes of league games so far this term, and they almost extended that impressive record. Liam Cullen on for Michael Obafemi. Sorinola had a shot blocked after a slick counter attack, although clear cut chances were few and far between. Ollie Cooper on for Olivier Ntcham. But Vitinho headed Vincent Kompany's side in front on 15 minutes after some woeful defending from the visitors.
Jay Rodriguez struck twice as Burnley despatched 10-man Swansea 4-0 to step up their Championship promotion push. The Swans' run of four-straight wins was ...
The Swansea defence had looked increasingly nervy and when Cabango underhit a pass as they tried to play out against more clever pressing, Tella pounced. Burnley, who moved top of the table as a result – took control early on, thwarting the Swans’ attempts to play out from the back and exposing a vulnerability on their flanks. The Swans’ run of four-straight wins was brought crashing to an end by goals from Vitinho, Rodriguez and Anass Zaroury, and their misery was completed by a straight red card for top scorer Joel Piroe for violent conduct with 15 minutes remaining.
Burnley move to the top of the Championship as a brilliant first-half display sees them cruise to a dominant 4-0 win over a poor Swansea City.
