Burnley vs Manchester City Betting Tips: Latest odds, team news, preview and predictions

Title-chasing Manchester City travel to Turf Moor to take on in-form Burnley on Sunday afternoon.

The visitors were 2-0 winners against bitter rivals, Manchester United, at Old Trafford on Wednesday night. As such, Pep Guardiola's charges know that victory from their final three league matches will bring about back-to-back Premier League titles.

Burnley, though, come into this clash in a rich vein of form. Sean Dyche's side have collected 10 points from their last four Premier League matches, thanks to wins against Wolves, Bournemouth and Cardiff followed by a 2-2 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge last time out. 

Latest odds

William Hill offer just 1/7 (1.14) that City take another confident stride towards achieving that objective with a win this weekend. The firm go 20/1 (21.0) that Sunday's hosts come out on top whilst the draw is available at 7/1 (8.0).

Team news

Peter Crouch, Steven Defour, Aaron Lennon and Phil Bardsley remain out for the Clarets.

Kevin De Bruyne is again sidelined for the visitors, while Fernandinho will be assessed. Leroy Sane could start after scoring as a second-half substitute at Old Trafford in midweek.

Comfortable for City

Manchester City have won by at least three clear goals in each of their last four victories against the Clarets and William Hill offer even money (2.0) that Guardiola's side (-2) win well at Turf Moor.

The same firm go 4/9 (1.44) that the men from Manchester lead by the break on Sunday afternoon and it is even money (2.0) that there are at least four goals in this game.

Prediction

Sean Dyche's side have been in impressive form of late, but the Clarets face a daunting task on Sunday. City have scored 27 goals and conceded just four in their last seven victories against Burnley.

The men from Manchester will be targeting another vital victory when they travel to Turf Moor this weekend. Despite their impressive attacking returns, defensive discipline has been the cornerstone of City's recent success.

Indeed, Manchester City have kept a clean sheet in eight of their last 10 league victories and William Hill go 7/10 (1.70) that the men from Manchester win to nil when they travel to Lancashire.

The selection would have landed in four of City's last five wins in this competition. Furthermore, the selection would have paid dividends in both of City's last two victories against the Clarets.
