THE PREDICTION

It is ten weeks since their opening game, and eight games later,Burnley have finally registered their first win of the season. Their 1-0 win over Palace is of course a major positive for Sean Dyche and, hopefully for the Burnley faithful, a turning point for the club. They will struggle to build on it though even against a struggling Manchester City side low on confidence. City failed to win for the fifth time this season following their 2-0 loss to Spurs, their second defeat of the season. Luckily for City though, it’s still early on in the season and there's time to claw themselves back into the title race, and one would feel that a comfortable win over Burnley this weekend can act as catalyst to that. They have a great record against the Clarets and a comprehensive win to nil is favoured here.
