Betting on Burnley
Burnley Football Club continues to impress with their remarkable 14-game unbeaten run in the league, putting them in a prime position for promotion to the Premier League. The team’s dominance in the Championship has been nothing short of exceptional, and they are on the brink of clinching the league title.
With promotion almost a certainty, the team’s attention now turns towards the FA Cup, where they have a genuine chance of lifting the trophy. Despite being considered as one of the dark horses of the competition, Burnley has shown that they are one of the most consistent teams on the island.
Their success can be attributed to their solid defense, which has been nothing short of outstanding. In the league, they have only conceded 28 goals in 34 games, an impressive feat by any standards. In the cup, they have only let in three goals in three games, with their only replay coming against Ipswich, which they won 2-1 at their home ground, Turf Moor.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Arijanet Muric; Connor Roberts, Hjalmar Ekdal, Jordan Beyer, Ian Maatsen; Josh Cullen, Josh Brownhill; Nathan Tella, Johann Gudmundsson, Anass Zaroury; Ashley Barnes.
Betting on Fleetwood Town
The Fishermen are enjoying an upward trajectory in the league, having gone unbeaten in their last five games. With aspirations of promotion, they have their sights set on sneaking into the playoff positions. Currently positioned at eleventh place, it’s worth noting that they were languishing in seventeenth place not too long ago, signaling a remarkable improvement in their performance.
Despite their recent success, their road to the fifth round hasn’t been without its challenges. The team has overcome several formidable opponents, including a 2-1 victory over QPR and a thrilling two-game series against Sheffield Wednesday, which they drew in the first leg and won the second leg in dramatic fashion, 1-0.
However, the team faces a potential hurdle as they juggle their focus between two goals. While their minds are firmly set on promotion, the squad may not be as robust as some of their competitors, like Burnley, which could potentially hinder their chances of success.
Possible Line-up (3-5-2): Jay Lynch; Harrison Holgate, Aristote Nsiala, Brendan Sarpong-Wiredu; Shaun Rooney, Josh Vela, Lewis Warrington, Harvey Macadam, Patterson Phoenix; Jayden Stockley; Carlos Mendes Gomes.
JefeBet Prediction
Burnley are unbeatable, and it will be difficult for them to lose, even with Fleetwood’s good form: as we mentioned, they’re juggling between two objectives. This will take a bit of a toll on them against a more relaxed team, that is only focused on the cup.
Prediction: Burnley 2-0 Fleetwood
