Two of the Championship‘s more familiar names find themselves in an early relegation scrap. Burnley sit bottom of the table without a win, while Derby County are only two places better off, and something has to give at Turf Moor on Saturday.

Anthony Eadson’s Burnley vs Derby predictions, best bets and score prediction are below.

Premium Tips

Anthony Eadson is all about goals between two leaky, out-of-form defences.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Over 2.5 goals10/11 (bet365)Forget Burnley’s favourite tag, because this game is all about two thoroughly porous defences. Burnley have the worst rearguard in the division, shipping sixteen goals in seven games, yet they have scored in every single match and hit both teams to score in all seven. Derby, meanwhile, have lost three on the bounce and leak goals just as freely. Whenever Burnley are involved this season the goals have flowed at both ends, so taking odds against on the over 2.5 is the obvious, data-driven play.
Sammie Szmodics to score anytime10/3 (bet365)In a game brimming with goals, Derby’s chief attacking threat is worth backing to find the net. Sammie Szmodics already has two goals and is the visitors’ most reliable source going forward, and he comes up against a Burnley defence that is the worst in the division, having shipped sixteen in seven. With both teams scoring in every Burnley game so far, the openings will be there for Derby, and at 10/3 Szmodics to add to his tally is a rewarding, data-backed anytime call.

How Burnley go into the game

Burnley are rooted to the bottom after a 3-1 defeat at Swansea, and have conceded more than anyone. A win at Turf Moor is overdue.

Dangerous in flashes but fragile at the back, Burnley need to turn home games into points.

How Derby County go into the game

Derby were beaten 2-1 at home by Birmingham last time out and sit just above the drop zone. Confidence is low.

Capable of a threat but inconsistent, Derby face a tough trip to Turf Moor.
