West Brom v Burnley – Free Under 2.5 Tip!

West Bromwich Albion supporters were rejoicing after a much needed 1-0 win at White Hart Lane last Sunday, when Spurs again failed to perform following a tricky away from home Europa League outing, this time around it was a disappointing 0-0 draw in Belgrade.

The Baggies much maligned and unpopular new manager, Alan Irvine, picked up all three points for the first time this season, as his newly assembled squad finally gelled in North London.
West Brom have had the most departures and arrivals, player wise, of any Club in the Premier League, so a settling in period was always going to be taken into consideration, but the pressure on the new man seemed to be in place before he even began work.

Irvine will be hoping to make it back-to-back victories on Sunday afternoon as newly promoted Burnley travel south to The Hawthorns. Albion’s reserve side managed to put three past Hull City on Wednesday night, beating The Tigers 3-2 in the Capital One Cup, and equalling their total goal tally of 3 from their first 5 League games. In fact, James Morrison’s winning strike against Tottenham was West Brom’s first goal for 254 minutes of Premier League football.

Burnley’s rigid 4-4-2 approach under up and coming English manager, Sean Dyche, has seen them record three consecutive 0-0 draws in the League of late, a style which sharply contrasts with The Clarets last ill fated stay in the 2009/10 Premier League, where their naïve attempts to outscore the opposition saw them finish bottom of the table.
With Burnley failing to score in their last 4 games, coupled with West Brom’s cautious style and lack of finishing power in front of goal, a low scoring but hard fought game should be on the cards for Sky TV viewers this weekend.

Sean Dyche’s ability to obtain clean-sheets as a coach is without question; the fiery haired ex-defender oversaw 14 clean-sheets for Burnley last term, with their defence also conceding the fewest goals (37 from 44 matches) in the Championship.

Danny Ings and Sam Vokes scored 47 goals between them for The Clarets in that successful campaign, and their absence through injury makes the Lancashire Club a far less potent threat going forward. The current partnership of Lukas Jutkeiwicz and Marvin Sordell does not feel like the required Premier League standard for clincal goal scoring.

Put a medium to large stake on this game ending in Under 2.5 goals being scored at 1.73 Euro odds or 73/100 UK.
