Bristol City Double Chance
Burnley finally clinched the Championship title on Tuesday evening when they beat Lancashire rivals Blackburn 1-0, though the Clarets are certain to be a little out of gas on Saturday after their celebrations – which were fully deserved. Bristol City meanwhile, have gone nine games without defeat at Ashton Gate and they should relish the opportunity to test themselves against the champions. The Robins are generously priced in the double chance market and our opening Bristol City vs Burnley prediction recommends a stake in that direction.
Both Teams to Score
Champions Burnley might drop points this weekend, though they can be backed with confidence to score at Ashton Gate. The Clarets have failed to notch just four times in 44 Championship fixtures so far this term and they can be relied upon to impact the scoresheet again this weekend. Bristol City have scored in 100% of their last nine assignments on home turf however, so back both teams to get in on the act on Saturday.

Read all of the latest injury updates, Bristol City vs Burnley lineups and team news for Saturday’s Championship tussle below.
Bristol City
Tomas Kalas, Ayman Benarous and Rob Atkinson are among those listed as injured for Bristol City at present. The Robins left it late to beat Rotherham in their last match, and it took a 91st-minute winner from Andreas Weimann to get them over the line against The Millers.
Predicted Lineup for Bristol City: O'Leary – Tanner, Vyner, Naismith, Pring – King, James, Cornick, Scott, Bell – Conway
Burnley
Burnley will be without the services of injured duo Hjalmar Ekdal and Nathan Tella this weekend. It will be interesting to see what team Vincent Kompany selects on Saturday now that the title has been secured. The celebrations after the fact could have an impact on his thinking too.
Predicted Lineup for Burnley: Muric – Roberts, Al-Dakhil, Taylor, Maatsen – Brownhill, Cullen, Vitinho, Gudmundsson, Zaroury – Barnes
Player to Watch – Tommy Conway
Exciting young forward Tommy Conway hit his eighth Championship goal of the season in Bristol City’s 2-1 win over Rotherham last weekend, and the 20-year-old will be eager to impress once again when he lines up against Burnley on Saturday. The breakout star notched an assist against the Clarets earlier in the campaign.
