Burnley Manchester United betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This clash should be one of the most unbalanced of this round of the English Championship, given that it faces two teams that goes through very different times within the competition. While Manchester United comes from two wins and boasts a good period of undefeated record, Burnley is in a bad phase, coming from two defeats. The home team has difficulty in maintaining ball possession and also at the time of finishing, but  bets a lot on the set pieces while its defense excels in the aerial game. Manchester United often attack by the flanks, and bets heavily on counterattacks, individual plays and set pieces, showing a lot of efficiency at the end. Thus, having a great offensive power, it is a good option to bet on the victory of Manchester United.

The home team is currently in the 7th position of the league, with 34 points won, after 9 wins, 7 draws and 7 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Liverpool, by (1‑2). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Crystal Palace, by (1‑0). For the league, Burnley won 17 points out of 30 possible points, after 5 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses in the last 10 home matches. In their home matches there are a few frequent results: at half‑time 0‑0 (6 out of 11 matches) and after the 90' 1‑0 (4 out of 11 matches). In their home matches for this competition there is a tendency for few goals, since 9 of the last 11 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 9 of their 23 matches for this competition, and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 11 home matches for this competition there are 3 periods that stand out: they have scored 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (76'‑90'); they have conceded 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (61'‑75') and 3 of their 8 goals between (76'‑90').

Burnley made a good start to the English Premier League, adding six victories in eight matches but is now at its worst in the competition as it has not won for six rounds, coming from two straight defeats. The last of them took place away from home, against Crystal Palace, in a game where it did not have a good offensive performance, having finished less than half the opponent's time. The attack is in fact one of the great problems of the team, so much that today it is among the five worst of the competition, having not scored goals on nine occasions, being also one of that the least complete. Another weakness of the team has been the exchange of passes, being the one that misses the most. For this bout, the 4-4-1-1 should be the tactical formation adopted by the coach, who should keep Guðmundsson as a reference on the right side.

Confirmed Lineup: Nick Pope, Phil Bardsley, Charlie Taylor, James Tarkowski, Ben Mee, Jóhann Guðmundsson, Jack Cork, Jeff Hendrick, Scott Arfield, Ashley Barnes.
Coach: S. Defour, S. Dyche.

Analysis Man Utd

The away team is currently in the 2nd position of the league, with 50 points won, after 15 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Everton, by (0‑2). In the last match, they won in a home match against Stoke City, by (3‑0). In the last 10 away league matches Manchester United has a record of 5 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses, so they have won 18 points out of 30 possible. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 23 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 11 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 4 of their 11 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Manchester United has a chance to add its third consecutive win for the English Premier League in this exhibition and thus reach its eighth straight game without losing in the competition. In the last round, the team had a good performance against Stoke, and did not give much chance to the opponent, thus applying a heavy defeat at home. This was the third straight game in which the team did not concede goals, thus evidencing the consistency of the defensive system, which is, alongside Chelsea, the least leaked of the championship. The attack is also doing its part, and is now the third best of the competition, averaging 2.08 goals per game. Away from home, the team owns the third best campaign, and in that condition only stopped scoring in two games. It is likely that the coach will organize the team in the 4-2-3-1, and although it can count on Young again, who returns from the suspension, it may opt for Shaw, who had good performances replacing the suspended player.

Confirmed Lineup: David De Gea, Antonio Valencia, Ashley Young, Phil Jones, Chris Smalling, Nemanja Matić, Juan Mata, Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard, Romelu Lukaku, Anthony Martial.
