Burnley vs Crystal Palace prediction: ENGLAND: Premier League betting tips on match 2025-12-02 19:30.
[p]Things look bleak for Burnley in their bid to beat the drop, so the visit of a Crystal Palace side who excel against promoted opposition seems inopportunely timed.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]It’s now four defeats in a row for Burnley after a 3-1 reversal at Brentford on Saturday, a run which has seen them slip into the bottom three. They must be fearful of ever getting out of there, especially having spent all but five minutes of the 2023/24 Premier League campaign inside of the relegation zone, and Scott Parker’s side appear to be suffering the same shortcomings as Vincent Kompany’s defensively-lacking side, as Parker’s men have now conceded 2+ goals in five successive league outings. Things are unlikely to get much better here either, with the Clarets winning just one of their last 23 games at Turf Moor against non newly-promoted sides (D4, L18), and even that came playing against a Brentford side who played over 80 minutes with ten men back in March 2024.[/p]
[p]Crystal Palace lost ground in the European race over the weekend as they let slip a 1-0 lead when going down 2-1 at home to Manchester United. The Eagles have now lost successive games after being defeated in Europe last Thursday, with this game rounding off a busy period of three games in just under a week for a Palace side who haven’t lost three in a row under Glasner since October 2024. An impressive run of just one defeat in 17 Premier League games against newly-promoted opposition (W10, D6) hints that they won’t be matching that feat here, even if they have lost three of their last five competitive away games (W2). [/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]Crystal Palace completed a H2H double in 2023/24 and have won by a 2+ goal margin on three of their last five visits to Turf Moor (D1, L1).[/p]
