What to expect
We expect about 1.6 goals from Burnley and 1.1 from Derby, so Burnley come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 2.7 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.
Derby come into this on three straight defeats. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.
Our pick: Burnley to win. Burnley are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 1.5-1.1), and we make them about 54% to win. On this shape, taking them to come out on top looks the cleaner play than chasing a bigger price elsewhere.
We put the chance of that landing at about 52 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.83, which works out at about 55 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.
