Crystal Palace vs Burnley: Preview and Predictions

Crystal Palace vs Burnley
English Premier League
Date: Saturday, 29th April 2017
Kick off at 17:30 UK/ 18:30 CET
Venue: Selhurst Park.

Crystal Palace will host Burnley in a very important match of the 35th round of Premier League on Saturday afternoon at Selhurst Park.

The host are in a much better position as they are two points clear ahead of the Clarets in the bottom half of the standings and they also have a game in hand on Burnley.

Crystal Palace

More to the point, the Eagles have been enjoying a much better shape over the last couple of weeks and they will realistically come in the game as clear favourites to pick up the home points.

Sam Allardyce has done miracles since taking charge of the team as he made the danger-zone Crystal Palace competitive against the strongest teams in the league.

Burnley

Burnley are definitely not among the strongest sides in England, especially not when they play on the road.

Sean Dyche and his men have the weakest away record in the entire competition as they failed to pick up a single victory away from Turf Moor since the very start of the season.

Crystal Palace vs Burnley: Head to head

Burnley are the more successful side in head to head clashes winning 11 of 29 meetings with the Glaziers.

It is very interesting to note that both of the last two encounters between the two sides ended with the same 3-2 scoreline.

Crystal Palace vs Burnley: Prediction

The H2H stats might suggest goals, but we can hardly see the visitors on the scoresheet.

Everything points out to a pleasant afternoon for the fans at Selhurst Park and we have no other option but to take the home win as the top betting prediction.
