Match Preview

Pep Guardiola takes his high flying Citizens to Turf Moor next week and our Burnley vs Man City preview will try to predict how things will pan out in what looks like a tricky Premier League fixture for the league leaders. The Clarets are on their worst run of the season so far and they will have to turn things around soon to avoid their European qualification hopes dissolving.

Our partners: Trusted, credible, and player oriented – those are the three characteristics that come to mind when talking about free no deposit casino uk 777Spinslot.

The home side are without a win in eight coming into today’s Burnley vs Man City betting tips and earthworm eating manager Sean Dyche must be wondering where his team’s next win is going to come from. Playing the league’s top two at home in quick succession is far from the ideal way to build momentum and Burnley will need a miracle if they are to avoid their third Premiership loss on the spin at Turf Moor next week.

Man City haven’t been their usual free flowing selves in the past month and while the wins have kept on coming for the most part, they are just about getting away with some sub-par performances. Their first league defeat of the season to Liverpool might have rattled a few cages, while the Championship’s Bristol City ran them very close in their double header Carabao Cup Semi-Final games. The Sky Blues have won ten of their twelve away matches in the EPL this season, however, which has helped them collect more points on the road than any other top-flight team in 2017/18.

Burnley vs Man City Prediction and Betting Advice

The away team scrutinised in this week’s Burnley vs Man City bets have a phenomenal record in this fixture. The Citizens have won 100% of their last four meetings with their hosts, including both their meetings earlier in the current season. Guardiola’s men beat the Clarets 4-1 at the Etihad in the FA Cup just a couple of weeks ago and beat them 3-0 in the league at the same venue back in October.

The Sky Blues have lost just one of their last fifteen against the club from Turf Moor in total since 1975. As far as goals go, when City play, there are usually plenty. In each of their last six fixtures, over 2.5 goals were scored. In fact, twenty-seven goals flew in altogether in those six contests, which works out at an average of 4.5 per ninety minutes.

Without a win in eight, the Clarets will be happy if they keep the score down to a modest number next week, though they will find that an incredibly hard thing to do. Guardiola’s ruthless squad have already plundered seventy EPL goals this term, which is sixteen more than any other team. The Premier League football odds for our selection at Betfair represent fantastic value and are well worth checking out.

Ironically, maybe the only man in world football to doubt Sergio Aguero’s ability has been his own boss Pep Guardiola. Aguero had lost his place in the Citizens’ starting eleven to young Brazilian forward Gabriel Jesus, but since Jesus picked up an injury, Aguero has come back into the side with devastating effect.

The 29-year-old has hammered home eight goals in his last six appearances and he has hit sixteen goals in just seventeen Premier League starts this season. Aguero bagged a wonderful hat-trick in his last league game against Newcastle and that magnificent individual performance forced us to include him in today’s Burnley vs Man City predictions.

Interestingly, Aguero has already scored three times against the Clarets in 2017/18. He scored twice just a couple of weeks ago in his side’s 4-1 FA Cup game and scored a first half penalty in the league contest between the teams last year. Backing Aguero to score anytime is always a smart move and you can utilise the final part of today’s English football tips using the superb odds we dug out at Unibet.
