Burnley vs Fleetwood Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in English FA Cup on Wednesday, 1 March 2023.
Burnley are by far the best team in the English Championship this season, and are on a course to get promoted at the end of the campaign.
Meanwhile, Fleetwood are stuck in the mid-table of the English third division, and are on a rather poor stretch of performances on the road at the moment.
Only twice have these two teams locked horns before, and on both occasions Burnley registered a win along with a clean sheet. The scorecards were 0-2 both times.
Burnley have a lead of 12 points at the top of the Championship table – such is their dominance in an insanely competitive league like the English second division. They lost just twice all through the campaign, and scored the most, as well as conceded the least.
They also have a 100% winning record at home in all competitions since August, barring two draws, and the last they lost here was back in May, in the Premier League.
On the other hand, Fleetwood managed to win just six times on the road in the past ten months, and are a mid-table team in the third division.
It appears that hosts Burnley are huge favorites this Wednesday.
Burnley slotted in four goals in their latest appearance at home, and scored two or more goals in 10 of their past 12 home fixtures. They also scored the most number of goals in the Championship this season, and scored two or more goals in 100% of h2h clashes till now.
It seems that we are about to witness a high-scoring affair.
Not only did the hosts of the day keep clean sheets in 100% of h2h meetings so far, but they also conceded the least number of goals in the Championship. It might be tough for the visitors to find the back of the net this game week.
Burnley are hands down the favorite the to lift the title at the end of the Championship campaign. They are in such phenomenal form, that they have a 100% winning record at home in all competitions since August, barring only two draws.
They also have a perfect record in h2h clashes, and most of all, their counterparts are from the third division. As a matter of fact, Fleetwood have just six wins to their name on the road in the past ten months.
Likely, a -1.5 Asian Handicap on Burnley would be a neat pick at 1.95 odd.
On the same note, goals are expected in plenty from the toppers of the Championship. After all they scored the most number of goals in the second division, and scored twice or more in 100% of h2h meetings as well.
As such, the Over 2.5 Match Goals wager looks like a promising option at 1.67 odd.
