Burnley FC and Preston North End clash for a Lancashire Derby on Saturday, October 5, 2024, at Turf Moor, but the match ended in a 0-0 draw. Despite the intense competition, neither team managed to score a goal.
The match saw several key moments, including a controversial decision by the referee. An early goal by Preston North End was ruled off-side, a decision that the EFL panel later described as a ‘really poor decision'[6).
Burnley’s starting lineup included James Trafford in goal, with Maxime Estève, CJ Egan-Riley, Lucas Pires, and Bashir Humphreys in the defense. The midfield was manned by Josh Brownhill, Josh Cullen, Hannibal Mejbri, and Luca Koleosho, while Lyle Foster and Jaidon Anthony led the attack[3).
The draw keeps Burnley in a strong position in the English League Championship, with 17 points from 8 matches. Preston North End, however, remains with 8 points from their 8 matches[3).
