Burnley vs Manchester City Prediction & Betting tips
Eleven points is the deficit of the reigning champion Manchester City on the current leader Liverpool. The “Citizens” are currently not even the first pursuers of the “Reds”, but must be third as even Leicester City the precedence.
Let’s take a look at Burnley vs the match. Manchester City on the betting odds for the overall winner in the Premier League, the bookmakers currently have little doubt that the Klopp team will bring the coveted title to Anfield for the first time since 1990. However, for the Guardiola troop to continue to dream of a comeback, an away win on Tuesday evening at Turf Moor is definitely no alternative.
The task at the “Clarets” could turn out to be more difficult than many currently assume, because on the one hand, the home side of coach Sean Dyche have already won four of their seven home games in the current season and on the other hand, ManCity littered last, especially in foreign countries , not really with fame. All over the competition, the defending champion’s last away win has been in the past for more than a month.
Given the circumstances, it’s a bit of a surprise that Burnley and Manchester City are predicting the odds of a game outcome so clearly towards the visitors.
We expect a balanced match in which the hosts will demand everything from the favorites. Finally, we believe in a “tight panties” and cover with our Burnley Vs. Manchester City tip on the handicap (+1.5) thus all results from where the “sky blue” won not with at least two goals difference.
Burnley:
The Burnley Football Club is now in its fourth year in the top English league and has thus established itself among the top 20 teams in the country. After rank 15 in the past season is to jump out in the current season at best again a single-digit placement.
At the moment, position ten is jumping out for the “Clarets”, but the field is still very close. The lead on the first relegation place is just six points, while rank five even has only two points more in the account than the club, which was one of the founding members of the English Football League in 1888.
A setback suffered the team of coach Sean Dyche last weekend. At home against Crystal Palace it put for the “wine reds” an unnecessary 0-2 defeat, by which one missed the jump on a European Cup place. Burnley failed but not on a strong opponent, but primarily on their own chance exploitation. At the end there were eight shots on goal more than the guest in the statistics, but you went out empty handed.
Let’s take a look at the Burnley vs. Manchester City odds, then it can be assumed that the bookmakers weight this Heimpleite a little too strong and the Dyche-Eleven, among other things, at home against the favored “Citizens” no surprise. Another reason for the clear distribution of prices could be the recent appearances of the “Clarets” against the top teams.
Already against the Chelsea FC (2-4) and Liverpool FC (0-3) hailed it for the club from the county of Lancashire home defeats against teams to be estimated more. Nevertheless, it should be noted that Burnley conceded only two goals in the other five home games and despite the aforementioned bankruptcies can look at a positive goal difference (11: 9). A certain home strength is therefore to be attested to the table tenants accordingly.
Personally it looks really good at the “Clarets”. In particular, the return of Johann Berg Gudmundsson and Matej Vydra, who were last injured, could provide a positive energy on the pitch. Ashley Westwood is also entitled to play again after the suspension has been issued. Only behind Charlie Taylor, who had to be replaced early on the weekend, is a question mark.
Manchester City:
Manchester City is not running well these days. A single victory jumped out of the past five competitive matches. In the course of this review the so important match was lost in the direct competitor in Liverpool with 1: 3. There were also disappointing points in the Champions League and on the weekend also in the Premier League.
In the relegation candidate in Newcastle, the “Citizens” had to settle for another 2-2. Despite a 2-1 lead from Kevin de Bruyne in the 82nd minute, the Magpies had the last word and finished in the 88th minute in the person of Jonjo Shelvey.
Eleven points behind the “Reds”, the title defense in the highest English league has come a long way. Even many English experts meanwhile trust Leicester City rather the sensational comeback in the championship. In particular, the already almost become a rule, weak upward spill prevent in the current season, a better yield.
For Citizens, the four wins in seven appearances at national level are almost an insult. Not only at Newcastle United (2: 2), but also in the promoted Norwich City (2: 3), the reigning champions were unnecessarily points. The performances of the three-pointers were by no means as sovereign and dominant as they were last year.
Compared to six competing matches in November, coach Pep Guardiola’s team did not win a single match with more than one goal difference. In general, the “sky blue” since mid-October waiting for a success in the foreign. Under these circumstances, we think a forecast on a tight affair between Burnley and Manchester City is quite obvious.
In third place, the tense staffing situation is added. Above all, the failure of striker Sergio Agüero weighs heavily. In addition, Leroy Sane, Olexandr Zinchenko and Aymeric Laporte are missing. Because already at the weekend with Manchester United in the city derby another big caliber waits, it is likely that Pep Guardiola will launch the rotary machine. A changed start-up is unlikely to have a positive effect in the currently difficult phases.
