Burnley take on the visitors Hull City in the round 3 match of English Championship. The match will be played on Tuesday, August 16th at Turf Moor (Burnley).
Burnley had been in the Premier League for quite some time. And even once a red-haired manager with his wards managed to become the "champion of the rest of England." That is, he took 7th place, right behind the giants, and tried his hand at European competitions. And the 2021/2022 season brought the resignation of the local legend which still did not save from relegation. Now the “clarets” are forced to change the composition. Of course, the stars do not want to stay in the Championship, and leave the project. The mentor has also changed, and here it is interesting: they decided to bet on Vincent Kompany. There were enough doubts about the Belgians, in the end, as a coach, he did not achieve special heights with Anderlecht. But the ex-defender made his debut with a victory over potential rival Huddersfield. True, then Burnley only played a draw at home with Luton. And to Watford, a potential competitor, lost 0-1 at all.

Hull had difficult last few years. In 2020, there was even relegation to League 1, however, with an instant return, also with a victory in the division. But last season was for the "Tigers" in a difficult struggle for survival. Fortunately, successful: new, Turkish investors have relied on Shota Arveladze. And the well-known Georgian striker in the past, who had already become an experienced coach, did not disappoint. He and his new wards were able to climb to the “saving” 19th place. Having strengthened in the summer (Figueiredo, Estupinan, Seri and several stars from the Turkish Super League at once), but at the cost of selling Lewis-Potter to Brentford, the team started with a victory. They beat Bristol City 2-1. Then it turned out to take points out of the away match against Preston. They immediately flew out of the cup, losing to Bradford, but then there was a victory over Norwich.
The last time the sides crossed was in the 2016/2017 season, when Hull were promoted to the Premier League. Then both fights ended in draws. Bookmakers consider Burnley to be the favorite, but they are inconsistent at the start in this season. So it’s worth betting on Hull with a handicap of “+1 goals scored”.
Prediction for the match: Hull to win with +1.0 handicap.
