Manchester City find themselves in a position they wouldn’t have dared to hope for just a few weeks ago. If they beat second-from-bottom Burnley, they will go top of the Premier League table.
City should make a statement and win this match without too much trouble as they build momentum for the final five games of the Premier League campaign.
I’m expecting goals and entertainment in Burnley on Wednesday evening.

Premier League predictions for Burnley vs Man City
My Burnley vs Man City best bet: Over 3.5 goals (-115 at Sports Interaction)
Manchester City have won their last 14 matches against Burnley in all competitions, scoring at least two goals in each of the last 11. When the sides met in Manchester in September, City ran out 5–1 winners.
Three of the last four head-to-head meetings have produced at least four goals, with the other ending with three. City are in excellent form, scoring 11 goals across their last four competitive matches and conceding just once.
They have beaten Liverpool 4–0, Chelsea 3–0, and Arsenal twice during this run, so Burnley look like just another victim.
Burnley vs Man City same-game parlay (SGP)
Over 3.5 goals
Over 9.5 corners
Erling Haaland 2+ goals
Rayan Cherki 1+ shots on target
Man City average almost six corners per game, the third-highest in the Premier League, behind Newcastle and Chelsea. They will look to assert themselves in Burnley’s half, so I expect plenty of opportunities from set pieces.
Erling Haaland has scored seven goals in four previous games against Burnley, averaging a goal every 36 minutes against the Clarets. He ended a four-match drought with his strike against Arsenal at the weekend, and I expect him to keep delivering in this midweek clash.
To push my parlay to an appealing +675 return, I’m also including in-form Rayan Cherki, who also found the net against Arsenal on Sunday.
