Manchester City Burnley betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This clash tends to be somewhat unbalanced since the home team has a world-class squad and leads the Premier League while the away one has only average squad and struggles to leave the bottom half of the table. In addition, Manchester City is the only team to win all the home games, besides being the one which scored the most goals in this type of situation, while Burnley has only 1 positive result away from home, just against the competition's last placed and usually find enormous difficulties in the away matches. Given these factors, we believe that Manchester City will press from the early minutes, as it does in every game at its stadium, and finish the first half already at an advantage on the scoreboard.

Manchester City and Burnley meet at Etihad Stadium, in a match for the 9th round of the Premier League. The head‑to‑head history at this stadium, favours the home team, since in the last 4 head‑to‑heads they won 3 and tied 1. Accordingly, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, for the FA Cup, on 06‑01‑2018, Manchester City won by (4‑1). S. Agüero (56' and 58' ), L. Sané (71' ) and Bernardo Silva (82' ) scored for Manchester City and A. Barnes (25' ) for Burnley. Both teams register significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth atention.

Analysis Man City

After 6 wins and 2 draws, the home team is in the 1st position, havinf won 20 points so far. In the last match, they have tied in an away match against Liverpool by (0‑0), after in the previous match they have won (2‑0) at home, against Brighton & Hove Albion. This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 12 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in away matches; against 8 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses at their stadium.

They have won the last 4 home matches and haven't lost any of the last 8 matches for this competition. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 8 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, since 41 of the last 56 have ended with Over 2,5 goals. They have been able to score first and have done so in 6 of the last 8 matches for the Premier League, they have reached half‑time in advantage in 5 of those 6 matches and have always held on to the lead until the end of the 90'. there is 1 period that stands out in the last 20 home matches for all competitions: they have suffered 7 of their 20 goals between minutes (16'‑30').

Manchester City has been once again campaigning well in the Premier League, is one of 3 unbeaten teams after 8 rounds and goes in search of the 3 points to stay in the lead of the competition. The team is characterized by an excellent balance between the offensive and defensive sectors, scored 21 goals, having the best attack of the Premier League, and suffered only 3 goals, with the defense less leaked and these figures help to explain its great performance. Playing at home, such as this Saturday's match, Manchester City is the only team with 100% of the points played, has an average of more than 3 goals scored per game in this type of situation and, in addition, has the second less leaked defense in the home matches, evidencing the enormous strength that it has in the home matches where it does not usually give chances to the opponents. For the confrontation against Burnley, coach Pep Guardiola has no problems in the team that has been playing and still has the important return of midfielder Kevin De Bruyne after a few months recovering from injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Ederson Moraes, Benjamin Mendy, Aymeric Laporte, John Stones, Riyad Mahrez, Fernandinho, David Silva, Bernardo Silva, Sergio Agüero, Leroy Sané.
Coach: Vincent Kompany, J. Guardiola i Sala.

Analysis Burnley

The away team is currently in the 12th position of the league, with 8 points won, after 2 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Cardiff City, by (1‑2). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Huddersfield Town, by (1‑1). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 19 goals scored and 22 conceded; against 3 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 15 goals scored and 17 conceded. In the last 4 away league matches Burnley has a record of 1 win, 1 draw and 2 losses, so they have won 4 points out of 12 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 6 of the last 8 matches for this competition. In 8 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 9 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 3 of their 7 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Burnley rose from income in the latest rounds, coming from 3 unbeaten games where it won 2 and drew 1 and wants to maintain a good stage to continue to rise in the standings. The team is hitting offensively and scored goals in its last 3 games, but the defense still needs adjustments, having conceded goals in 6 of the last 7 rounds and needs more solidity, especially against the next opponent who has huge offensive strength. Playing away from home, such as this Saturday's match, Burnley conquered its first win in the last round, but the triumph was against the competition's last placed and, in general, the team finds difficulties in this type of situation, since it attacks little and is pressed most of the time by playing with practically the entire team withdrawn and with few exits in the counterattack. For the difficult duel with Manchester City, the team will not be able to count on defender Tarkowski, an important absence in its already fragile defensive system.

Confirmed Lineup: Joe Hart, Matthew Lowton, Charlie Taylor, James Tarkowski, Ben Mee, Jóhann Guðmundsson, Jack Cork, Jeff Hendrick, Aaron Lennon, Sam Vokes.
Coach: S. Defour, S. Dyche.
