Burnley vs Swansea Preview

 

Burnley

Burnley are back in the big time at the first attempt after bouncing straight back from relegation two seasons ago with promotion last season. The job that Sean Dyche has done has been nothing short of miraculous considering the budget that he has been working with and the Burnley players are 100% behind him and his methods and this is vital when going into a potential relegation battle. He also has a striker who has been in red-hot form for over twelve months now; Andre Gray.

 

Swansea

It’s been all change in in South Wales this summer with a couple of notable departures which could have a big impact for the forthcoming season. Last season’s top scorer Andre Ayew departed for West Ham and ex-club captain Ashley Williams has gone to Everton to replace John Stones. These two players were arguably Swansea’s best two players last season and I can’t see Francesco Guidolin bringing in replacements who will perform as well as these two. Although a World Cup winner has joined in striker Fernando Llorente, I worry about them at the other end of the pitch and this is where I think they will struggle throughout the season.

Burnley vs Swansea Predictions

 

I have already mentioned Andre Gray in my Burnley vs Swansea preview, he scored an impressive 23 league goals last season and has picked up where he left off last season by scoring nine in six games in pre-season, he is certainly in our thoughts for an anytime or first goalscorer tip this weekend. The latest Burnley vs Swansea betting odds have him at 6/1 to score first (Coral) and 9/4 (Bet Victor) to score anytime. The odds for him to score anytime look a steal and so my first Burnley vs Swansea prediction is for Andre Gray to score anytime.

Correct Score Predictions

Turf Moor is a tough place for the opposition to grab all three points as shown last season when they only lost two league games all season. Although the Premier League is an obvious step up in class, I can see Burnley being hard to break-down at home. They go into the match full of confidence as well as they haven’t lost a match all pre-season against some decent opposition. I think that the home crowd will create an electric atmosphere on Saturday which will be replicated by a positive performance from their team. I think this will be a tight game with one goal probably deciding it, that’s why my second Burnley vs Swansea betting tip is going to be Burnley to win by exactly one goal at 3/1 with Sky Bet. (This can be 1-0,2-1,3-2 etc). You could bet on a few correct score bets for the match but it is probably better value to use this market from Sky Bet.
