Free Bets has taken a look at some of the best tips ahead of Sunday's clash.
Aston Villa v Burnley Tips
Here are our three top football tips ahead of Sunday's clash at Villa Park.
Tip 1 – Aston Villa to win to nil
It's been a tough start for Aston Villa this season, with slight improvement during the transfer window.
Then, add in the first five games, which include three draws and two losses, and things have not been great for Villa fans.
However, things are starting to look up now, as they have managed to secure a couple of wins in Europe and a victory against Fulham last week. Scoring goals have come at a premium as well, but beating Fulham 3-1 should set their season alight now.
Villa are going up against a struggling Burnley side, who didn't invest in their team as much as the other teams that came up. They are currently sitting in 18th place with only four points, all of which have been earned at home.
Burnley have only scored six goals this season and have failed to score in two of them. Villa is the better team, and given that they have turned a corner now, after beating Fulham, another win should follow. Stopping Burnley shouldn't be a problem for them.
Tip 2 – Kyle Walker to be shown a card
Kyle Walker has been a constant presence in the Premier League for over 15 years now, but his career is nearing its end. He always used his pace to get himself out of trouble when defending, but his pace is no longer what it used to be.
In this match, he will be going up against some players with serious pace, and he has a chance of making a mistake or two. Walker has already had two yellow cards this season, and there is a decent chance that he might end up with a third during this game.
Tip 3 – Ollie Watkins to score, Aston Villa to win 1-0, 2-0 or 3-0 & Kyle Walker to be shown a card
It's been a slow start for Aston Villa and Ollie Watkins, but he finally got off the mark against Fulham last week. That will have given him some confidence, and he will be facing weaker opposition in this game.
Watkins scored 16 goals last season in the Premier League - he hasn't gone bad overnight.
We have already said that Aston Villa winning to nil is likely to happen. Although Villa have got better, it's unlikely that they will score more than three goals. A 1-0, 2-0, or 3-0 score is a good bet to include in the correct score combinations market.
Also, add Kyle Walker to be shown a card. As previously mentioned, Walker is 35 now and doesn't have the pace he once had. He has already had two yellows this season, and another could come in this game.
