Burnley FC prepares to face Bristol City FC in nail biting encounter

As Burnley FC prepares to face Bristol City FC on March 29, 2025, the statistics heavily favor the home side. Burnley has shown dominant form whenever these two teams have clashed in the past, winning 10 of the 14 encounters. With their average of 2.05 points per game at home this season, they are well-poised to maintain this trend.

In stark contrast, Bristol City has managed only two victories in their last 14 meetings with Burnley and are performing just averagely on the road, garnering 1.11 points per game away. Given the historical backdrop, another comprehensive victory like Burnley’s 4-0 triumph in their most recent meeting isn’t out of the question.

Additionally, encounters between these teams have a history of being goal-rich, with an average of three goals per game and a BTTS (Both Teams To Score) rate of 57%. While Burnley’s robust home form indicates they’ll likely dominate, Bristol City’s knack of sporadically finding the net could pose a threat. Expect a high-scoring affair with a lean towards a Burnley victory.
