Burton vs Accrington Odds, Free Betting Tps, & Predictions

A close encounter can be expected, with Burton only recently exiting the relegation zone Accrington continue to flirt with. We believe any Burton vs Accrington prediction made below is a likely outcome.

Burton to Win

Burton have enjoyed serious dominance at home in this fixture over the recent years. The Brewers have dropped just 2 points in their last 7 home games against Accrington (W6 D1). Burton are also full of confidence after being able to record 4 wins in just the last 5 rounds. All this makes us give this Burton vs Accrington prediction.

Dale Taylor to Score Anytime

Our second Burton vs Accrington prediction is a bit brave, but we think it’s justifiable when one makes a closer examination of some statistical analyses. We think Burton’s new striker Dale Taylor will be able to score his second goal since joining the club in late January. In the 5 games since his arrival, Taylor averages 3.2 shot attempts per match. He also creates 2.5 big chances per game for his team. Taylor scored on his debut, but also hit the woodwork in 2 of the last 3 rounds. Clearly, he is the focal point of Burton’s attack right now.

Over 2.5 Goals

Our final Burton vs Accrington prediction looks at the goals market. We think the game will have at least 3 total goals. This had been the case in 6 of the last 7 games between the sides when Burton were the hosts. Also, both matches between the teams this season had gone way over 3 total goals – a 4-4 league draw in August and a 4-2 Accrington win in December in an EFL Trophy match.

Burton vs Accrington Lineups, Analysis, and Latest Team News

Burton

Burton deservedly came from behind to beat Bristol Rovers 2-1 away from home last weekend. With this, the Brewers made it 4 wins in just the last 5 rounds and they breathe much easier now.

Inner midfielders Terry Taylor and McCann remain sidelined. However, all of Helm, Gilligan, Smith and Kamwa have been passed fit again. As a result, Burton have rich options to refresh their lineup if they wish to do so.

Accrington

Accrington are likely to feel tired after yet another busy midweek. They missed a golden chance for a trip to Wembley when losing their EFL Trophy semifinal against Bolton on Tuesday. In the league, Accrington are fresh from their 1-0 home win over Shrewsbury last weekend. The result stopped a 5-game winless run.

The squad is badly crippled for the coming match though with 10 players set to miss. Important midfielders Coyle and Leigh are serving bans. In the meantime, among the 8 sidelined players are 4 other regular starters – Tharme, Astley, Hamilton and Pritchard.
