Our Prediction<\/th>\nOdds & Bookmaker<\/th>\nConfidence<\/th>\nWhy We’re Backing It<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Brighton to Win<\/strong><\/td>\n8\/15 @ Bet365<\/a>
(65.2%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nBrighton are heavily favoured to secure a much-needed victory against relegation-threatened Burnley. Burnley sit 19th with only 12 points, having lost 13 of their 19 league matches. Their defensive record is abysmal, conceding an average of 1.95 goals per game. Although Brighton are winless in six, their attack averages 1.47 goals per game and should easily exploit Burnley\u2019s fragility. Playing at the AMEX, the Seagulls’ superior quality and Burnley’s poor away form make a home win statistically probable.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Danny Welbeck Anytime Goalscorer<\/strong><\/td>\n11\/10 @ Bet365<\/a>
(47.6%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nDanny Welbeck is statistically poised to score against Burnley\u2019s porous defence. As of 31\/12\/25, Welbeck has been highly clinical this season, boasting 8 goals and a strong 0.78 goals per 90 minutes rate. He faces a Burnley side that has conceded 37 goals in 19 matches, averaging 1.95 conceded per game. Crucially, Burnley\u2019s away form is worse, conceding 2.67 goals per game on the road. Welbeck\u2019s high expected goal involvement (0.52 per 90) against the league\u2019s second-worst defence makes a goal almost certain.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
