Burnley News and Form – Can Burnley take any points against Man City?

Burnley suffered a home loss against Crystal Palace on the weekend. That was a little bit of an upset too as the Clarets had won their two previous league outings. But that tallies up now to a W2 L4 record in their last six games. Ahead of welcoming Man City to Turf Moor on Tuesday, Burnley can take some inspiration from Newcastle who earned an unexpected point against the Citizens on the weekend.

The Clarets have posted a W4 L3 record on home soil in the top flight this season. It may need putting into context though, because each of those wins were against teams down in the bottom half of the table, including three of the bottom four. Still, it has been four clean sheets in their seven home games which on paper is an excellent return. Especially as they have been trailing at the halftime break in three home fixtures. The Clarets have produced two thirds of their home goals in the second half of games at Turf Moor.

Man City News and Form – Can Man City get back on track with a win at Turf Moor?

Another stutter form Manchester City played itself out on the weekend. They conceded a late equaliser away at Newcastle to only grab a point. That is just four points from their last three league outings now and the gap between them and league leaders Liverpool is just getting bigger. The away record of the Citizens this season is W4 D1 L2 and their failure to win at St James’ Park on the weekend leaves them winless in two road games and with just two successes in their last five away from the Etihad.

Man City are averaging over 2.5 goals per away game this season, but they haven’t looked as convincing and steady in defence at all. At the back, they have conceded at an average of 1.4 goals per road game. 76% of Manchester City’s road games have gone over the 3.5 goal line this season. Each of the four road successes that City have banked this season have been by a margin of at least two goals. Their defensive slips have primarily been in the first half, with 70% of their away goals conceded in the first half of fixtures.

Burnley vs Manchester City Predictions

Man City to win: The Citizens are more prone than ever to stumbles this season it would seem, but they are still stacked with plenty of scoring power and quality that suggests that they are going to prevail more often than not. Burnley have yet to prove themselves against a higher-quality team at Turf Moor. Away win & both teams to score.
