Burnley vs. Manchester United: Preview and betting tips

Manchester United will be back in the Premier League after a disappointing trip to Munich, this time taking on Burnley, who finally got their first point after 3 defeats. So far neither team has any reason to be happy, but that could change on Saturday.

Manchester United have been struggling on all fronts this season, but they have to deal with a big illness, plus other problems that will keep Antony and Jadon Sancho out.

At least Raphael Varane has reported his return, which is great news given the leaky defence. The Red Devils have conceded 10 goals in their last 3 games. That’s where a major change needs to take place if they want to pick up points on a regular basis.

After 5 rounds, Manchester United are only 13th with 6 points and the top of the table is getting dangerously far away. On the other hand, nothing that Erik the Hag doesn’t know.

But Burnley are not without problems either, who finally got at least one point in the last league round, when they drew with Nottingham Forest 1-1. Before that, they lost three times to Manchester City, Aston Villa and Tottenham.

In total, the team of former great defender Vincent Kompany scored 11 goals in those three games. However, such a tough draw to start with for a return to the Premier League, not many would have coped with that.

So we definitely can’t rate Burnley negatively, their strength will probably still show once slightly more acceptable opponents come. Although the opening duels look tragic according to the scores, but on the pitch it wasn’t that bad.

However, Manchester United clearly declared their strength against Bayern Munich and I personally feel that for the first time this season they could put in a performance that would see them claim a well-deserved three points.

However, whether this intuition will be confirmed will be seen on Saturday night. However, there is one more probable thing, which is Over 2.5, which is priced at around 1.65. Both teams are scoring goals regularly, but mostly they are getting goals. Thus, the mutual duel should not be an exception and we should see 3 goals on Saturday.

Betting Tip | Over 2.5
