United have been doing a very good job of keeping Burnley away from their own goal so far. But that may not actually meet your own requirements. Manchester United should be able to make it 2-0 against a promoted team.

Half-time conclusion
Manchester United goes into the break with a 1-0 lead against Burnley. The home team was the better team for long stretches of the first half. Burnley even had some good chances to score. But the effectiveness in front of the goal was missing. Manchester United became a little more active as the playing time increased. The Red Devils had more and more possession towards the end. They had chances mainly through good individual actions. Bruno Fernandes showed the best action in the 45th minute. His dream goal is the reason for the somewhat fortunate break.

Manchester United last won a competitive game on August 26th. Since then there have been three defeats in a row. The team is under a lot of pressure. We have to win against Burnley, otherwise the air will get thinner for Erik ten Hag.
8:05 p.m
Burnley didn’t start the season well. After four games, the promoted team only has one point. This was picked up last Monday in the 1-1 draw against Nottingham. Today against Manchester United it will probably come down to a defensive battle. A point against struggling Red Devils would be a success.
