Burnley vs Brighton – Our Betting Verdict

The latest odds for the game strongly favour the Seagulls. They are priced at just 11/20 to claim all three points. The Clarets are available at 5/1, with the draw priced at 4/1.

Given those odds, our betting tip for the game is a draw. Whilst Burnley have been poor away from home, Brighton have drawn their last three Premier League games at the Amex. Yes, Brighton are a better team than Burnley, but odds of 4/1 on the draw are just too long to ignore.
