Burnley v West Brom Betting Preview – Premier League 6th May 3.00pm

The Clarets celebrated their first away win of the season last weekend when they went out and beat Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. Can they follow that up with a home win on the weekend? Last weekend’s victory released some pressure off them after a slump in form. The Baggies are in a huge slump of form themselves, losing their last four and having failed to hit the back of the net for a long time now.

Burnley v West Brom Betting Tips

Burnley were celebrating their first away win of the season last weekend as they went to Crystal Palace and pulled off a bit of an unexpected victory. That was an important win for them too because they were on a slide in form and that eased some pressure off them as they had won just one of their previous eleven league games. Burnley have gone W10 D2 L5 at Turf Moor this season in the top flight, but they have slipped back to a W1 L2 record in their last three on home soil, but the losses were tough games against Spurs and Manchester United. Under 2.5 goals in this game at Bet365 is a price of 4/7. Burnley lost 4-0 at West Brom earlier in the season, but that doesn’t look likely to happen again as the Clarets are in search of their first Premier League victory over the Baggies, having drawn one and lost two of the previous three. The win at Palace was Burnley’s fifth ever away win in the Premier League and they failed to follow any of their previous away wins with a victory. But, this is their best season in the top flight thanks to their home form and the Clarets to win to nil at Bet365 is a price of 9/4.

Things are going wrong for West Brom at the moment and they have put together a four-match losing streak in the Premier League and have gone winless in five now. Worryingly for them, they haven’t hit the back of the net in any of their last five league matches now (the first time they have done that in the Premier League) and their goal drought is currently standing at 465 minutes. But with all of that having been said, the Baggies have averaged 3.3 goals per game against Burnley in the top flight with ten goals in three games against them. West Brom are currently on a six-match winless streak of form on the road in the Premier League (D3 L3) and they have failed to score in each of their last three away games. Both teams not to score at Bet365 is at a price of 3/4. West Brom, despite their slump, needs five more points to equal their best Premier League points return in a season (49). Burnley’s Andre Gray is the shortest priced option in the anytime goalscorer market at 13/8 with the Baggies’ Salomon Rondon at 21/20.

Burnley v West Brom Predictions

Burnley home win: Burnley have gone well at Turf Moor this season and will be lifted after their away win last weekend. The Baggies are just in a rut and the home side can take advantage of that by taking the win.
