The Premier League is back!
Today you can enjoy the very important duel between the title chasers and the strugglers for survival in the league. Namely, the19th positioned Burnley FC is welcoming the first-standing team in the Premier League, Manchester City. The last time Burnley avoided losing to Man City was back in February 2018 in a match with a final score of 1:1. Since then the Clarets lost against the Cityzens nine consecutive times in all competitions. So today will be their good chance to do better and finally stop this unpleasant losing streak.
Burnley FC doesn’t have their best campaign in the Premier League. So far they only managed to win 3 games, followed by 12 draws and 12 defeats. Their big victory against Tottenham Hotspur (1:0) sparked hope for their fans. But after this success, the Clarets played a tied match against Crystal Palace (1:1). Unfortunately, Burnley lost their last three games against Leicester (0:2), Chelsea (0:4), Brentford (2:0). Well, today they are facing an even harder mission against the best squad in the league. So Sean Dyche must find a very smart tactical approach and hope that with a bid of luck Burnley could make a sensation and win against Manchester City.
Manchester City FC on the other hand is in a dead race with Liverpool FC for the trophy. After 29 games played, the Sky Blues have 70 points, and the Reds have 69 points on their account. At this point, every missed chance to win 3 points is big trouble for both. Man City missed the chance for victory in their last game against Crystal Palace by playing a goalless duel. So today they will definitely attack hard against Burnley and make sure they leave Lancashire with added new 3 points to their account.
We are expecting absolute ball dominance by Manchester City and lots of goal-scoring opportunities. The favorite for winning the match will be the visiting squad from Manchester.
Our prediction: Market (OVER/UNDER) Tip: OVER (3.5)
