TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Burnley are yet to win in five matches now but do have four draws in that time. The performance levels have improved a little over the last few weeks but Burnley are not hitting the heights of early season. Last match out was a decent performance and Burnley should have closed the game out leading Birmingham 2-1 at St Andrews. After a lacklustre first 45 minutes Burnley exploded into the game with two goals in the second half but could not close out the match. Another draw to add to the collection.

Derby were on a great run of home form but found the power of Hull City too much. Derby had performed well at home all season and had given some top teams tough games but this was one match too many. They were second best for most of the game and bar a spell of late pressure they never gave a good account of themselves. Derby are decent at home but away matches performance levels drop for sure.

BURNLEY - DERBY : 1X2 BETTING PREVIEW

Burnley at 2.40 (BetVictor) is the selection. This is a very big price for Burnley. The prices does not match the fact that Burnley are a mere three points behind Derby. I would price this around 2.15 the home side and no bigger. Derby are a decent enough outfit at home but I would not be in a rush to back them away to anyone. Burnley have been showing signs of a return to form and 2.40 is worth a bet.

BURNLEY - DERBY :ASIAN HANDICAP PREDICTION

Burnley is the pick here at -0.25 (2.03 Pinnacle) The home side are underpriced for sure and we have value all accross the handicaps. I take the quarter ball handicap which sees half cash back on a draw and full payout on any wins. Burnley are a better home side than Derby are away and we should take advantage of the generosity of the bookmakers here.
