Burnley and Blackburn face off in a potentially mouthwatering Championship clash at Turf Moor in the early Saturday afternoon kick-off.
While the Clarets suffered relegation last term, they have made a decent start to Championship life, winning two of their three games, with table toppers Sunderland putting a dent in their record.
We’ve looked at some of the best football betting offers, odds and markets from our range of football betting sites to provide you with free Burnley vs Blackburn betting tips.
Burnley vs Blackburn Betting Tips
Burnley vs Blackburn Match Preview
Of course, a midweek defeat in the EFL Cup was not ideal, but Burnely have moved on from the post-Vincent Kompany era, and they have plenty of attacking weapons.
Blackburn, meanwhile, who were well off the pace last term, are a point and two places above Burnley in the table (third), and it’s fair to assert they have hit their stride.
But what will this weekend’s game bring? I have provided a couple of customary Burnley Blackburn betting tips for you to sink your teeth into and given the lowdown on what to expect.
Clarets to extend positive record against Rovers
Aside from the blemish against Sunderland, Burnley have got about their business swiftly, and while it is early days, they could be in the mix come the end of the season in terms of promotion.
Scott Parker’s troops have made Turf Moor a fortress, and they have lost just one of their past 37 Championship games on home soil (W26 D10), so they will take some beating.
More worryingly for the visitors, they have lost their last five league games against Burnley, and the home side have kept a clean sheet in each of the last four.
Burnley are looking to extend their winning record to six in a row against Blackburn, something they have never achieved before.
I always like to look for patterns and for the first of my Burnley Blackburn betting tips, I’m gravitating towards Burnley to win & to nil, of which Paddy Power is advertising an attractive price of 23/10 for you to follow up on.
Josh Brownhill to get the ball rolling for Burnley
In Burnley’s first two Championship games this term, they were on fire, rattling in nine goals to sweep aside Luton and Cardiff respectively with consummate ease.
Josh Brownhill got in on the act against both sides, and with two to his name this term, he is already halfway to emulating his tally of four last season in the Premier League.
The midfielder will look to break things up in the middle of the park, but he has proven, when given a chance, to be a canny finisher.
In terms of value, Brownhill to net the opening goal of the game appears to be a decent shout, and he’s trading at 12/1 with bet365 for you to explore.
