Burnley v Hull
Saturday 3pm BST (Game Day and Time in UK)
With absolutely no conviction we’re tipping a 1-1 Draw @ 6.50 with Bet365.
Hull have surprised us all winning their opening 2 games of the season over Leicester and Swansea before falling to Man United before the international break. Burnley have been a little more predictable losing to Swansea and Chelsea either side of a “lucky” win over Liverpool. Lucky in that they set the record for the lowest possession figure of any winning team in Premier League History – just 19%! They had only 3 shots and scored from two of them, compared with Liverpool’s 26 (5).
A clear winner in the previous Premier League matches, Burnley hold a P4 W4 record.
Hull have really struggled to score against Burnley, just 1 goal from 4 matches with Burnley scoring in all 4 matches. It’s a small sample so we’re not giving it a lot of credence when we look for a bet.
When looking for a first goalscorer, it would follow that given Hull’s abysmal record in this fixture that Burnley will score first. Could Ashley Barnes get on the sheet first at 7.00?
