S.P. Read Esq: Southampton v Burnley

Our daily columnist and pundit S.P. Read Esq. looks ahead to Sunday’s Premier League game between SOUTHAMPTON v BURNLEY and finds the best opportunities available on Star Spreads, the home of sports spread betting.

Three goals at Stamford Bridge but the third one came too late for me.

We still have Liverpool v Man U to come on Monday but ahead of that a trip to St Mary’s for Southampton v Burnley.

My first instinct was that Southampton looked a little short, they haven’t scored in their last two games and their wins so far this season haven’t come against the top flight clubs.

I’ve been impressed with Burnley’s transition to the Premier League. 14th in the table and they were desperately unlucky not to get a point from the Arsenal game when the Gunners snatched a last second highly questionable goal.

Burnley proved they’re a match for anyone with a 2-0 win over Liverpool in August.

Burnley manager Sean Dyche said: “We have to be intent on doing what we do and have belief in what we do and so far we’ve had a solid start.

“We want that to continue, though we’re obviously aware it’s a tough place to go.”

I think it will be a low scoring game and am a Star Spreads buyer of the first match goal at 37 minutes.
