Burnley vs West Brom: Top Free Betting Tips

West Bromwich will be focused to continue their winning streak when they take on the league leaders in the next fixture on Friday, 20 January. The Clarets have also been consistent recently and follow a five-match winning string to play this game.

Both Teams to Score Prediction: Yes

West Bromwich Albion kept successive clean sheets in the league before the last duel but they have a difficult task ahead to continue the form. The team has also an opposite pattern in away games and allowed goals in five of the previous six visits. But they have hit the target in all of the last five duels. Burnley has also been on the scoring side in all of the home attempts this season. The teams shared three BTTS patterns in the last five meetings at the home of Burnley and we predict the same at the end of this game.

Total Goals Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals

Burnley has allowed only three goals in the last five games but West Bromwich Albion has produced a strong offensive form previously and scored seven goals in the last three visits. Burnley has also hit the target  13 times in the last five meetings at home. West Bromwich has held a poor defence in recent away outings and allowed five goals in the last two visits. Three of the previous five H2Hs of these teams have ended with over 2.5 goals and we hope for the same in this game.

Correct Score Prediction: 2-1 to Burnley

Burnley found the target more than once in three of the last five meetings against West Brom at home while allowing six in that duration. The baggies have also scored at least twice in most of the recent games but the hosts would be confident as they kept three clean sheets in the recent five hosting duels. In opposition, West Bromwich has conceded at least twice in both of the previous two away attempts.  So we predict the hosts to confirm a 2-1 before the end of ninety minutes in this game.

Burnley vs West Brom: Form, Recent Games, and News

Burnley Preview

Coventry City bothered the Clarets a little but the hosts found the target after eighty minutes and registered a 1-0 victory in the last game. Burnley is five points clear at the top of the table, having 17 wins in 27 games. Defensive midfielder Ashley Westwood will be absent from this game due to an ankle fracture.

West Brom Preview

After conceding two goals in the first ten minutes of the last game, the Baggies made a brilliant comeback to earn a 2-3 victory against Luton Town. The team has a total of 11 wins and eight draws in 27 attempts and stands in the sixth position on the table. Kean Bryan and Erik Pieters will not play this game due to fitness issues.

Burnley: Players to Watch

Burnley are well on their way back to the Premier League as they have been dominating the Championship throughout the past six months. Which players should you scount ahead of this game? When it comes to goals, several Burnley players have exceeded the expectations. Jay Rodriguez has scored 9 goals in 23 games already, Nathan Tella has 8 in 24, and Manuel Benson has 7 in 24 games this season. But you should also look at Josh Cullen for a different reason – the Midfielder already has 10 yellow cards within 24 rounds.

West Brom: Players to Watch

West Brom have definitely not been as active in the scoreboards this season despite the fact that the team is now one of the best again. But they definitely do not have a distinguished top-scorer. Expect goals from Brandon Thomas-Asante, who has 5 in 18 games for Burnley this season. As for cards or a better overall performance, watch out for Erik Pieters, who is a former Burnley player and will be extra motivated to win for the first time as a visitor on this ground.
