Burnley v Bournemouth Betting Tips – Premier League 13th May 3.00pm

It has been a fantastic season from Burnley and they can celebrate at the end of this as they will lock down a seventh-place finish in the table regardless of the outcome at Turf Moor on the weekend. Bournemouth have gotten themselves safe for the season and they will be able to relax and have the afternoon off too.

Burnley News and Form

Burnley have produced such a wonderful season and can just go out and enjoy their day at Turf Moor on Sunday. They have lost only one of their last six home fixtures in the Premier League (W2 D3) so are in good home form. Overall this season the Clarets have produced a W7 D5 L6 record at home. Burnley have hit the back of the net in all but one of their last six games at Turf Moor and both teams to score at bet365 is at 7/10 odds* (Betting Odds taken at 5:33 a.m. on May 10th, 2018). The Clarets have only lost one game to a side currently beneath them in the league table, which is a fantastic record. There haven’t been a lot of goals around Turf Moor this season as Burnley have conceded 15 and scored 15 in their home fixtures. Only 28% of their home matches have made it above the 2.5 goal line. In total, they have taken a clean sheet in 39% of their home fixtures and of the goals that they have scored at home, 60% of them have been in the second half of matches. Six of their seven home wins were by a one-goal margin.

Bournemouth News and Form

The Cherries were on a run of three straight losses in the league and were winless in five before they banked a home win over Swansea last weekend. The Cherries have gotten themselves safe for the season after struggling so much over the first half of the term. Their away form isn’t great with no win in their last five road games (D2 L3) and their defence has been pretty questionable. In the bet365 correct score market, the 1-1 draw is at 11/2 is the shortest-priced option available there. Bournemouth have lost all but one of their seven away matches (W1) against sides currently in the top right and have only managed to win three times away from the Vitality all season long. They haven’t taken a clean sheet in their last five road games, and have scored an average of less than a goal per game on the road. In total, Bournemouth’s defence has managed to earn a clean sheet in just 17% of their road games this season in the top flight. Only three teams have conceded more goals than Bournemouth have in this season’s top flight going into the final weekend of action.

Burnley v Bournemouth Head to Head

In the season’s earlier meeting it was Burnley who came out on top with a 2-1 success at the Vitality Stadium. That means Burnley are 2-1 ahead from previous Premier League meetings against Bournemouth. In the overall head to head from the history between them, Burnley are 11-5 up with five drawn matches. Both teams have scored in each of the last five league meetings and Burnley have never lost a home game against the Cherries.
