Swansea v Burnley Betting Tips – Premier League 10th February 3.00pm

The Swans have burst into life and are now on a four-match undefeated streak of form in the Premier League, keeping themselves out of the drop zone heading into the weekend. But they can’t afford to take their foot off the gas of course. Burnley worked hard for a share of the spoils at Turf Moor against Manchester City on the weekend and that will have injected a bit of self-belief into them, however, their winless streak was extended a little further.

Swansea News and Form

Swansea are now four matches unbeaten in the Premier League which is fantastic for them (W2 D2) and the upturn in form has given them a real shot at survival. Just back on Boxing Day in a heavy loss at Anfield against Liverpool, the Swans looked totally dead and buried and destined to be playing Championship football next season. But the arrival of Carlos Carvalhal has done wonders for them. They have every reason to be confident with back to back home wins in the league over Arsenal and Liverpool. That’s a massive six points they have collected. Those can be seen as bonus points, but they will count for nothing of course if they go and lose in games against the less stern opposition. The Swans are W4 D2 L7 at home and they are W2 D1 L1 in their last four in South Wales. The Welsh club have conceded in nine of their last ten league games but three of their four home wins this season have been with one. A Swansea to win to nil wager at Bet365 returns odds of 13/5* (Betting Odds taken on February 5th, 2018 at 2:16 a.m.). Just 38% of their league home games this season have managed to make it over 2.5 goals so this will probably be a low scoring affair too.

Burnley News and Form

Burnley aren’t likely to show up and run riot in front of goal. Their last three away games have not gone over 2.5 goals and overall this season home and away in the top flight, 77% of all of their games this term have gone under 2.5 goals. Burnley earned a surprising point at home against Manchester City on the weekend but they are still waiting to break a long winless streak of form which stands at nine now. They are without a win in any of their last six road games too (D3 L3). The Clarets have failed to hit the back of the net in four of their last six away games which is a massive problem for them. Both teams not to score with bet365 is at 4/6 odds* (Betting Odds taken on February 5th, 2018 at 2:16 a.m.). The Clarets have averaged just under a goal per game away from home and have averaged a goal per game exactly against. They haven’t taken a clean sheet in any of their last five games in the Premier League but they are facing a Swansea side who are just one of two sides to have scored fewer goals than they have done this season.

Swansea v Burnley Head to Head

Swansea slipped to a 2-0 loss at Burnley earlier in the campaign but they are well up in the head to head against the Clarets from their five previous Premier League meetings (W4 L1). So they have that going for them and they are currently on an eight-match undefeated streak at home against Burnley a well. Three of Swansea’s four Premier League wins over the Clarets were by a 1-0 scoreline and all four were by a one-goal margin only.

Swansea v Burnley Predictions

Swansea to win: The Swans will have a reasonable chance of winning this. They have home form over the Clarets and they are doing something that Burnley aren’t at the moment, that is winning league games. Swansea looks confident of survival at the moment and can take this by a one-goal margin.
