Manchester City vs Burnley Prediction & Betting tips
Manchester City and Burnley are both lower than they hoped. This weekend these teams will meet at the Etihad Stadium. Will Manchester City manage to win again in the English league after two league matches without a three-pointer?
Manchester City:
Prior to this round of play in the Premier League, Manchester City was in thirteenth place in the Premier League. Panic might be a big word, but at Manchester City they are a bit concerned about the results this season. To date, The Citizens have already lost a lot of points in the Premier League and we are not used to that from Manchester City. For example, Manchester City’s gap on the lead is already eight points. The proportions in the Premier League are a lot closer this season. This will make it all the more difficult for Manchester City to connect with the top.
Last weekend, Manchester City ran into a loss of points during the game with Tottenham Hotspur: 2-0. In the round of play before that, Manchester City also came no further than a 1-1 draw against Liverpool. It is up to Pep Guardiola and his men to get a good result against Burnley on Saturday afternoon. Manchester City did the same in the Champions League on Wednesday evening: Olympiakos Piraeus was beaten 0-1 in Greece by a goal from Phil Foden. Unlike a few weeks ago, Manchester City has a fairly empty infirmary, as only Nathan Aké is missing against Burnley.
Burnley:
Burnley is just above the relegation line in the Premier League. Last season, The Clarets ended in the left row. It is doubtful whether Burnley will also achieve such high scores this season. Meanwhile, Sean Dyche’s team has already played eight games and only managed to score five points. It must be said that many other Premier League clubs have already completed nine matches. In the previous round of play, Burnley only managed to book the first victory of the season and therefore The Clarets are back above the line for the first time in two months.
Burnley’s first win in the 2020-2021 season came on Monday evening. On their own Turf Moor, the van Dyche team was visited by Crystal Palace. Chris Wood made the only goal of the game in the eighth minute and thus gave Burnley the first win of the season. A victory that they could use well at Burnley. This also in view of the upcoming games of The Clarets. After all, with Manchester City-away, Everton-home and Arsenal-away, Burnley will face no easy opponents for the next three weeks.
