Burnley v Everton Betting Tips – Premier League 3rd March 12.30pm
It sounds a bit dramatic to say, but will Burnley’s winless streak come to an end before the end of the season gets here? It was extended last weekend as they were held to a home draw by Southampton. It is Everton next up for them at Turf Moor and the Toffees slipped to a loss out at Everton last weekend. Can Burnley take them down too?
Burnley News and Form
Burnley are winless in eleven league games yet still they are sat up in seventh place in the league heading into the weekend. They have played out back to back 1-1 draws at home in the league now, where they are winless in five. In the William Hill correct score market a 1-1 draw is at 11/2, the same odds as a Burnley 1-0* (Betting Odds taken at 10:14 p.m. on February 26th, 2018). The Clarets have only returned the ten goals at home this season, but they have conceded an average of just 0.8 goals per game against them at Turf Moor. Just 14% of their games at home this season have produced more than three goals so look under 2.5 goals at William Hill for an obvious option at 4/9 odds* (Betting Odds taken at 10:14 p.m. on February 26th, 2018). Surprisingly though the Clarets haven’t managed to bag a clean sheet in any of their last seven league game and they are without one in their last five at Turf Moor. It is worth backing a half-time draw as most of the goals at Turf Moor have been produced in the second half games.
Everton News and Form
Everton haven’t been in much form away from Goodison Park and lost 1-0 at Watford last weekend. That’s four straight away defeats that they have suffered now in the top flight. They have only won once away from God’s Dion all season and have managed just the two goals in total across their last five road games. Everton have not taken a clean sheet in any of their last eight games in the league and in none of their last four away from home. They have earned a clean sheet in just 14% of their away games. They are around the mid-table mark and that is likely where they are just going to end up. Only the current bottom two of Stoke and West Brom have collected fewer away points than Everton have managed this season and only three teams have a worse defensive record as well. It is going to be really hard to back them with any confidence on the weekend and Wayne Rooney is still the only player for them to have scored more than one away goal this season in the league. Both teams not to score at William Hill is at 13/20 odds* (Betting Odds taken at 10:14 p.m. on February 26th, 2018).
Burnley v Everton Head to Head
Burnley landed an away win at Goodison Park when the two of them met back at the start of October. That left things pretty even between the two of them. Burnley took a 2-1 win in this corresponding fixture last season and they are trailing 3-4 from the previous seven Premier League meetings with Everton. The Clarets are W2 L1 from their three previous Premier League home games against the Toffees.

Burnley v Everton Predictions
Draw: Even with Everton coming to town, who are hopelessly out of form away from home, it’s still hard to back the Clarets to bust out of their winless streak of form. It wouldn’t be a huge surprise if Burnley were involved in yet another drawn match.
