Betting Tip: Burnley – Plymouth

One day’s break before the midweek round kicks off in the Championship. Plymouth has surprised with two wins in their last three games, while Burnley has only lost one of their first seven. At home in front of their own fans, Burnley is solid as a rock. We’re going for a betting tip.

Burnley – Plymouth
Turf Moor, Tuesday 8:45 PM

Burnley won away at Leeds and followed up, after some initial problems, by securing another three points at home against Portsmouth last weekend. Jeremy Sarmiento’s equalizer was top class, while Josh Brownhill’s winning goal came in the fourth minute of added time. Seven points out of nine possible at home. Saturday ended in a frustrating goalless draw away to Oxford. The Clarets dominated possession, and both Luca Koleosho and Andreas Hountondji had good chances to break the deadlock, but the advantage didn’t result in a goal.

Plymouth had a tough season opener, but Rooney’s team has steadily made progress since then. They defeated then-league leaders Sunderland 3-2 at Home Park before narrowly losing to current Championship leaders West Bromwich away last weekend. They had more possession than WBA and matched them in the number of shots. Underdogs again against Luton on Saturday, Plymouth once again proved they have more to offer than critics expected. Two goals from substitute Ibrahim Cissoko helped the home side win 3-1 at Home Park, moving Plymouth closer to the upper half of the table.

Betting Tip

Despite Plymouth’s undeniable progress, they mainly pick up points at home. They’ve earned just one point and scored only one goal in their last five away league games, while Burnley has secured seven points and scored eight goals in their last three home games. We bet on a home win at Turf Moor.
