Man City Will Go Top Of The Premier League With Victory At Burnley
Turf Moor | Premier League | Wednesday April 22 | 8pm
With the race for the title intensifying, BetVictor News delivers the Burnley vs Man City prediction, preview, H2H record, team news, betting angles, odds and more ahead of Wednesday’s clash at Turf Moor.
Burnley Vs Man City Preview
After Wolves’ relegation was confirmed owing to West Ham’s draw with Crystal Palace, it appears it’s only a matter of time before Burnley join the Old Gold in the Championship next season. In fact, a defeat to Man City will seal the Clarets fate.
And the Burnley vs Man City odds strongly imply that will be the outcome come 10pm on April 22. The Cityzens are purring currently and their ominous end-of-season run is gaining momentum. Especially after they beat Arsenal 2-1 on gameweek 33.
Pep Guardiola’s side normally up the ante at this time of year and even a juggernaut would find it difficult to stop City when they are in this sort of mood. They have defied Premier League betting in recent weeks – helped largely by the Gunners usual bad run across March and April – and look nailed on to land their fifth title in six seasons.
Burnley Vs Man City H2H Record
Across the recent Burnley vs Man City H2H record, the Cityzens have won the last 14 in a row across all competitions. Throughout their 19 Premier League clashes, the Clarets have just one victory and three draws to their name.
Historically, this is a fixture City have dominated since their first PL meeting in 2009. And it’s more than likely Pep Guardiola’s side will claim another win on Wednesday night.
Burnley vs Man City H2H record in the Premier League:
- Burnley wins – 1
- Draws – 3
