Prediction
Manchester City will be riding high after their pivotal 2-1 win over Arsenal at the weekend and Pep Guardiola’s men will fancy their chance against a Burnley side who will join Wolves in the Championship next season if they lose this clash.
The Citizens have dominated this fixture in recent years, winning the last four meetings by an aggregate score of 17-2.
They have not been impenetrable at the back however and Burnley have seen both teams find the net in five of their last nine games in all competitions.
Scott Parker’s side are preparing for life in the second tier however, and while they may get on the scoresheet, they are likely to be outclassed by this Manchester City team.
The visitors have won six of their last 10 road trips and given their performances in recent weeks, they should be too strong for their hosts.
Side with Guardiola’s men to go top of the table with a win in which both teams score.
