What Trueform says for Burnley vs Leicester
Burnley and Leicester had been producing similar levels of performance until last weekend when the Clarets took a big step towards securing seventh place in the Premier League and a possible Europa League place.
The Clarets are now six points clear of their visitors after coming from behind to beat Watford 2-1 while Leicester slipped up at home to Newcastle.
Generally these two teams look well matched, though, and we’re kicking off our Burnley vs Leicester betting predictions with a draw at odds of 21/10.
A Look At Burnley’s Betting Odds
The Clarets posted their fourth successive Premier League victory last weekend but it was not a vintage performance by any means as Watford were the better team and led through Roberto Pereyra’s 60th-minute strike.
But two goals in three second-half minutes from Sam Vokes – 22 seconds after coming off the bench – and Jack Cork kept Burnley’s run going.
Manager Sean Dyche said: “We had a strong mentality. It was a good win for different reasons, especially after making a couple of changes.”
That mentality has been the key to Burnley’s success this season but they have performed better on their travels than at Turf Moor, where they have only won six of their 15 games.
No team has scored fewer home goals than the Clarets and there have been just eight first-half goals at Turf Moor this season so a goalless first half appeals at 7/5.
A Look At Leicester’s Betting Odds
Leicester have enjoyed back-to-back wins at West Brom and Brighton on their travels but taking just two points from their last three home games looks set to prove costly.
After the defeat to Newcastle, boss Claude Puel said: “We have missed a good opportunity but it (the race for seventh) is not finished.
“For this game next week we now need a good reaction together, with a good spirit and a good mentality. It is not finished, of course, and we all believe in ourselves to come back.
“We needed to improve and we have to correct this, work hard in the training sessions and play together in the next game with a good feeling.”
Leicester have scored in each of their last 13 matches in all competitions so can trouble the Burnley defence. With that in mind, the last of our Burnley vs Leicester predictions is a 1-1 draw at 5/1.
