The visiting Manchester United side should be favourites in this visit to Burnley, as the away team holds a 17 point advantage from their 16 league games this season.
- Burnley have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored.
- Manchester United has the most points from losing position (18) in Premier League
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Burnley and Manchester United.
Burnley form and stats
Burnley have collected 10 points from their Premier League home games so far after 3-1-3. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Burnley after consecutive victories at their own ground.
Burnley drew their last game, also a home match. Milton Keynes Dons (after extra-time, 4-3 on penalties) was the opponent, 1-1 the score. Before that, Burnley had a Premier League home game versus Sheffield United which ended with a victory 1-0.
Matěj Vydra was able to secure the draw 1-1 in the game against Milton Keynes Dons (after extra-time, 4-3 on penalties) after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Burnley as they are travelling to their away game against West Ham United in the Premier League. That match is four days after this one.
Burnley aren't scoring a lot here at Turf Moor in the league, with only 5 goals from 7 games. Burnley have conceded 7 in these home matches.
Manchester United form and stats
Rock solid. That's the only way to describe the travels of Manchester United so far, with 6-1-0 (wins-draws-losses) so far. Those are Premier League statistics. In general it has been a productive period now for Manchester as they haven't lost any of their last ten games.
Manchester go into this game after a win, the home game against Watford that ended 1-0. A loss against Manchester City was the result prior to that, in a Carabao Cup home game.
Manchester are scoring goals for fun in their league games away this season, having clocked up more than three goals per game on average (21 goals from 7 away games). As for defending, Manchester United rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 11 goals from these away matches.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: one win for Burnley, four draws and five wins for Manchester United. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: seven games.Top Goalscorers
