Burnley vs Oxford United Prediction and Betting Tips (04.02.2025)

Command Analysis

Burnley

England

Current form

Before the start of the season, Burnley was considered one of the main contenders for a direct ticket to the Premier League - the selection of players allowed Scott Parker's team to set such goals. However, so far the "maroon" do not justify their status and occupy the third place in the table with 58 points in the asset. The Maroon are three points behind the second Sheffield United, five points more than the leader Leeds. The situation could have been more promising, but in the last round, Burnley scored a goalless draw with Portsmouth, failing to win the second match in a row.

Disqualifications and injuries

Agyei is injured.

Interesting betting trends

In the last 18 matches, Burnley has not lost – nine wins and nine draws.
Burnley have not conceded in the last four matches.

Approximate composition: Trafford– Roberts, Egan-Riley, Esteve, Pires–Cullen, Laurent, Anthony, Sarmiento, Foster–Flemming.

Oxford United

England

Current form

Before the start of the season, Oxford United was considered one of the main candidates for relegation from the Championship, losing to many opponents in terms of player selection. Gary Rowett's team made a lot of mistakes in the first round, but recently they have improved and moved away from the danger zone. By the 31st round, Oxford United is in 16th place in the table with 37 points and is 10 points clear of the relegation zone - such a handicap allows us to be optimistic about the future, but it does not guarantee anything yet.

Disqualifications and injuries

Moore and Nelson are injured.

Oxford United have not beaten Burnley in their last three matches – two defeats and a draw.

Tip and bets

1.75handicap (-1) for Burnley

Burnley, after losing points in two consecutive matches, will certainly strive to make the most today in an attempt not to let the competitors break away, but at the same time there is a risk of losing third place, Sunderland has only three points less and a match in reserve. It is obvious that the "maroon" have a serious advantage in class and are quite capable of confidently taking their points today – despite the success in recent meetings, Oxford United have plenty of weaknesses, and Yusa scored only eight points in 14 matches of the season.

We believe that the guests have no chance. The forecast is an Asian handicap (-1) for Burnley. This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.75

2.45Both will score

Bet on the total

Burnley, without any doubt, will be maximally motivated today and charged only for victory – for sure, the hosts will go forward with great strength in the first half. It is unlikely that Oxford United have a chance to win back against such an opponent, there is no special reliability in defense. At the same time, the Yuses have recently been distinguished by their excellent implementation, they are quite capable of finding one moment and turning it into a goal.

The bet is that both will score. This bet is offered with a coefficient of 2.45

Betting on corners

Burnley are the favorites and will probably spend the entire 90 minutes attacking – the hosts should win confidently from the corners.
