Prediction published on 30/03/2022, 05:33  by Indran in Premier League Predictions

Burnley and Manchester City meet at Turf Moor in a clash between two teams at opposite ends of the table. The home team are in 19th position with 21 points while the visitors lead the table with 70 points. Burnley have lost their last three matches and are facing down the relegation barrel. They are four points from safety but have played two less games than the other two teams in the relegation zone. Burnley last won a match in February when they surprised Tottenham with a 1-0 victory. Their record against Manchester City is very poor having only taken only one point in the last 11 matches between these sides. Burnley have performed well in the first half of matches and were level at halftime in their last three matches before losing the match in the second half. They have not scored in the three defeats while conceding eight goals.

Manchester City could be forgiven for thinking the league was all wrapped up in January as they led by 13 points but a combination of Liverpool’s excellent winning streak and them not being their ruthless selves have made the title race come down to the wire. City could actually start this match in second place if Liverpool wins their match against Watford. This will be the first time that they will not be in top position this year. Manchester City have only won two of their last four league matches, dropping four points in this period. They will be confident coming into this match as they have won the last nine matches against Burnley across all competitions by an aggregate of 32-1.
