Burnley to Win
Burnley secured promotion back to the Premier League on Saturday following their 2-1 win at Middlesbrough and while many will think that Vincent Kompany’s men will take their foot off the gas, we reckon the opposite.
The Clarets, who have lost just twice all season, are currently on 87 points and they can finish on a record-breaking 108 points, beating the current best of 106.
Burnley host second-placed Sheffield United, who will likely go up in the automatic promotion places with Kompany’s side.
They’ve won four of their last five in the Championship but Burnley are yet to lose at Turf Moor this season (won 14, drawn six) and that trend should continue on Monday.
Under 2.5 Goals
While we’re on a Burnley win, we’re not confident of there being goals.
Three of Sheffield United’s last four away games in the Championship have been Under 2.5 Goals and we could be in for more of the same on Monday.
It’s the two best teams in the league facing off and it could lead to a tight affair at Turf Moor. It’s also the two best defences in the Championship going head to head, with Burnley conceding just 30 goals in 39 games, while Sheffield United have let in 33 in the same amount of matches.

Over 4.5 Burnley Corners
Burnley are used to having a lot of the ball and creating plenty of chances, which leads to quite a few corners.
Kompany’s side average 5.72 corner kicks per game and Sheffield United give up an average of 4.79.
Burnley could end up facing a low block from Sheffield United’s defence which will lead to deflected shots and crosses going out for corners. Backing Over 4.5 Burnley Corners makes sense.
Anel Ahmedhodzic to Commit 2 or More Fouls
The final selection of our Bet Builder is Anel Ahmedhodzic to Commit 2 or More Fouls.
The centre-back is all action for Sheffield United. He’s already picked up 12 yellow cards this season but he’s also an attacking threat. He’s netted four times, chipped in with two assists and he averages 1.1 shots per game.
Ahmedhodzic averages just over two tackles and 1.3 fouls per game and he is up against the high-flying Burnley attack on Monday.
His foul tally for his last six games reads: 2, 3, 1, 5, 1 and 2. Ahmedhodzic gets stuck in and we expect him to get a couple of tackles wrong and picking up at least two fouls.
