Burnley vs Watford Soccer Betting Tips
Burnley has had an honorable season and is ranked 11th in the Premier League with 39 points from 30 games. Almost assured of their maintenance at 8 days to go, the Clarets figured very well before the end of the season, as evidenced by the positive series of 7 games without defeat (4 wins and 3 draws). Last Monday, they resumed competition by losing very heavily in the lair of Manchester City (5-0).
Not really used to fighting for its maintenance in previous years, Watford disappoints this season. The team is currently 16th in the Premier League and has a small point ahead of the relegation zone. The partners of former Rennes player Ismaïla Sarr have won only one of their last 8 league games, losing 4 and drawing 3. They found the grounds last weekend by conceding, at home, the sharing of points against Leicester following a goal conceded at the very end of the game (1-1).

Burnley’s attacking sector is greatly reduced by the defections of top scorers Chris Wood and Barnes. In addition, the Icelandic midfielder Gudmundsson is also forfeited. In front, Jay Rodriguez should be tenured to compensate for the absences.
For Watford, the important Spanish winger Deulofeu and the usual replacements Janmaat and Success are stranded in the infirmary. Winger Ismaïla Sarr (5 league goals) and striker Troy Deeney (6 goals) are the most influential offensive elements.
