Manchester City vs Burnley Prediction & Betting tips
An interesting match on this Saturday is the one played by Manchester City and Burnley for a new round of the FA Cup.
Manchester City :
In my opinion, Pep’s picture is a favorite due to the collective and offensive potential that he has, which usually appears even when the Spanish coach decides to use an alternate number because it is a cup-eating event. However, if we consider that the visit is a rough and uncomfortable one to overcome, we advise you to play a few euros to the bet “minus 4.5 goals”. Paint for the local to win but not for a great win.
Take into account that Manchester City comes from beat Watford in the Premier League, reaching 62 points in the table and continue as the only leader of the competition (win 3-1). The team has many weapons to reach the goal, even if coach Guardiola can use a mixed one.
On the other hand do not forget that the box “Citizen” could handle the times when he gets one or two goals in favor, being known as “regular” in many of his matches. Nor does it rule out that it costs you to reach the goal quickly and to delay in converting.
Burnley:
Continuing with the analysis you should know that Burnley is doing a good campaign in the English tournament, despite some missteps and having a staff of little reputation compared to other teams in the league. He comes from playing against Liverpool at home on the first of January (defeat 1-2 over the hour).
And finally we tell you that the visit will pose a tactical and rough duel, trying to cut the spaces for the boys of Pep. He is expected to pull back his lines and try to take advantage of a stopped ball to score. Comes to add 3 consecutive parities in which this forecast was given (0-0 against Brighton, draw 2-2 against Manchester United after winning 0-2 partially and parity 0-0 against Huddersfield).
After all that I said the game for the bet “minus 4.5 goals” due to the following reasons: First because Manchester City, despite being a dapper and lethal set in attack, you can lower your scoring average by not playing with all the holders . Therefore, we believe you can win but score 2 or 3 goals at most. Second because the “Citizen” table will dominate the game process, being able to manage the times and not accelerate so much once you have one or two so many in favor. And third because Burnley is a rough and tactful eleven in his actions, despite some limitations in defense. Faced with this reality, we believe that the City could win 1-0, 2-0 or 3-0, and can also be a win 2-1, 3-1 or 3-0 at the most. Remember that the process can be cooled if the game is already solved.
