Newcastle - Burnley Prediction, Picks and Tips
We take advantage of this week's Premier League day to bet on this match between Newcastle (15th) and Burnley (14th). Both teams come from winning their matches in the previous match and have taken off a bit from the relegation zone. Still, I think it will be a game in which they will prioritize not losing. They are two very similar teams, physical, strong and playing a very direct football. That is why I think they will neutralize each other and we will see the defenses imposing on the attacks.
In addition Newcastle is the second team that has scored less goals so far in the Premier League, only 24. If we take a look at the statistics of "Clean Sheets (goal to zero), we see that the team of Rafa Benitez is in Sixth position for having managed to make a clean sheet on 8 occasions, while Burnley is not notable for his goalscoring role, 31 goals and he has not managed to score in 6 matches.
In short, for being very similar teams that I think will neutralize each other, for being a match between direct rivals in which a draw would not be a bad result and because of its defensive strengths. For all this I think there will be less than 3 goals in this match.
