MATCH PREVIEW
After notching up his first win as Burnley manager, Brian Laws revisits the ground where he scored his first goal as a Clarets player.
February is going to be a very difficult month.
Fulham manager Roy Hodgson
An 18-year-old Laws opened the scoring in Burnley's 2-0 win at Craven Cottage in an old Division Three match in October 1980 that is also the last time the Clarets tasted victory at Fulham.
Now the Burnley manager must hope such omens inspire his team, who have the worst away record in the Premier League, with just one point earned all season.
Striking statistics about Fulham are of a more literal kind - Roy Hodgson's side have scored just once in their last five league matches.
And with Andrew Johnson ruled out for the season, Clint Dempsey battling with a knee injury and Bobby Zamora recovering from illness, Hodgson must be wondering where the much-needed goals will come from.
MATCH FACTS
Head-to-head
• Burnley have not won on their last seven league visits to Craven Cottage - their last win there came in an old Division Three clash in 1980.
• The teams drew 1-1 at Turf Moor in the reverse fixture in December.
