Crystal Palace vs Burnley prediction and betting tips on February 24, 2024
One of the matches in the 26th round of the English Premier League will take place in London at Selhurst Park, where Crystal Palace will face Burnley. Here's the prediction for this match from the experts at Dailysports.
Crystal Palace
For a considerable time, the Eagles were under the guidance of Roy Hodgson and, for instance, in the previous season, they finished at a respectable 11th place. Achieving such heights in the current campaign seems unlikely, especially since the club bid farewell to its long-standing leader, Zaha, over the summer. Additionally, the venerable Roy Hodgson, advised by doctors to retire from football, has departed recently. Just the other day, Crystal Palace welcomed the well-known figure from the Bundesliga, Oliver Glasner, to the fold. Last weekend, the Eagles played to a 1-1 draw away against Everton, extending their winless streak to three matches. Currently, Crystal Palace sits in 15th place in the table, five points clear of the relegation zone.
Burnley
Under the guidance of Vincent Kompany, the Clarets seem to be in dire straits. With each passing match, their chances of remaining in the elite division diminish. It's evident that the Premier League is proving too formidable for Burnley, and a return to the Championship seems inevitable. Last weekend, Vincent Kompany's side suffered a heavy defeat at home against Arsenal in the London derby, losing 0-5. This defeat marked their third loss in the last four Premier League matches. Overall, Burnley has accumulated only 13 points from 25 matches. They can only realistically compete with Sheffield United, who are languishing at the bottom of the table, while Luton has opened up a seven-point gap from this duo.
