Burnley are currently in 19th place in the Premier League standings and have struggled to cope with the rigours of the top flight this season. The home side held Nottingham Forest to a 1-1 draw last week and will need to take it up a notch in this match.

Manchester United, on the other hand, are in 13th place in the league table at the moment and have failed to meet expectations so far this season. The Red Devils slumped to a 4-3 defeat at the hands of Bayern Munich in their previous game and will need to bounce back this weekend.
