Burnley vs Aston Villa Prediction & Betting tips
Aston Villa is squinting towards the European ranks and looking to take another step forward with a win at Burnley. The hosts are more in the relegation battle, but still have a solid cushion. But caution is advised, with a negative streak, Burnley FC is quickly back in the critical zone.
Aston Villa’s good performances this season are also noticeable with bookmakers. Because before the game Burnley vs. Aston Villa, the odds clearly show that the guests from Birmingham are classified as favorites before this game. A lot is going well, Aston Villa is very stable and setbacks seem to have little effect on this team.
After beating Newcastle United (2-0) at the weekend, the guests now want to improve. Whether this will succeed will be shown on Wednesday evening from 18:00 p.m., then the game will kick off in Turf Moor.
Burnley :
For Burnley, every year it’s about keeping the class in the Premier League. Despite comparatively little financial power, coach Sean Dyche succeeds time and again in achieving this goal. Things are looking pretty good again this season. 19 points from 15 games mean that the Clarets are currently in 15th place. And: Burnley has one game fewer than most of their competitors in the lower half of the Premier League table.
However, it will be very difficult to score three points against Aston Villa. The betting providers also see it that way, who, before the Burnley vs. Aston Villa game, see the host as an outsider when it comes to odds.
The shape of the hosts is quite neat. In the league there were recently narrow defeats against Manchester United and West Ham (both 0-1) and a surprising 1-0 win against Liverpool FC. Burnley also won the FA Cup 3-0 over Fulham at the weekend. Two goals against in four competitive games mean that the defense is currently at a good level.
With 22 goals conceded from 18 games, the defense is absolutely no problem. This is more likely to be found in the attack. Because Burnley only scored ten goals of their own, no team has scored fewer goals than the host. That Chris Wood is the best shooter in the league with three goals says it all. Still: To take five wins with only ten goals scored is a decent achievement, Burnley gets the most out of it.
Against a flexible and sometimes very strong opponent like Aston Villa, the defense has to work very well again. After the last few games Burnley can be expected to do so, so before the game Burnley vs. Aston Villa our tip is that fewer than 2.5 goals will be scored.
It is positive for the hosts that coach Sean Dyche can draw on unlimited resources. All players are available.
Aston Villa :
Aston Villa’s season has been impressive, and not just because of their 7-2 win against Liverpool FC. The Birmingham club play a good role in the top half of the table and with a win over Burnley they can put pressure on the teams that are currently in the European Cup. That is also the goal.
Aston Villa beat Newcastle United 2-0 on Saturday and lost just one of their last seven games. The current form ensures that before the game Burnley vs. Aston Villa the odds of the best bookmakers show that the guests are the favorites. The balance in the team is just right, the defensive protection is good and the offensive enjoys its freedom.
31 goals in the Premier League are the fifth best value so far, but 18 goals conceded are no less noteworthy. The team now plays very disciplined, but at the same time is carefree and is driven again and again by an outstanding Jack Grealish.
Aston Villa did not deliver the big spectacle in the last few weeks either, scoring 13 goals in the last ten games. Before the game Burnley vs. Aston Villa, that also ensures our tip that fewer than 2.5 goals will be scored. Anyone who cannot follow the game live has the opportunity to be informed promptly with the live score function based on betting.
Like Sean Dyche on the other side, guest coach Dean Smith can also fall back on the entire team. After the game over the weekend, there should be some rotation.
