Manchester United vs Burnley Predictions and Betting Tips

The next Premier League clash between Manchester United and Burnley is expected to be one-sided, with Manchester United heading to the game as the favourites to win. They have been strong against Burnley in the head-to-head encounters, and with the home ground advantage, it will be easier for Manchester United to secure its first win of the season in the next game. On the other hand, Burnley has regained its winning momentum, which might help it to defeat Manchester United in the next game. Therefore, Manchester United, with the odds of 1.34, has a higher chance of winning the next game against Burnley, with the odds of 8.70.

Manchester United has not been able to perform well this season, holding the 16th spot with a draw and a loss in 2 matches. Currently, they have scored just one goal, which puts their goal-per-match rate at 0.50, and they have also made 20 shots, out of which 14 shots remained on target inside the box. The only goal scored by them was in the form of a penalty, while the team also maintained its XG rate at 3.15 in the first two games. Moving to their defensive side, Manchester United has conceded 2 goals, putting their goals conceded per match rate at 1, and they also hold 9 interceptions and 8 blocks in the season so far.

In the forward side, Manchester United has Bryan Mbeumo, with 46 passes in 2 appearances, Matheus Cunha, with 38 passes and 2 tackles, Amad Diallo, with 39 passes and 5 tackles, Alejandro Garnacho, with 16 goals and 8 assists in 93 appearances, Rasmus Højlund, with 14 goals and 2 assists in 62 appearances, Antony, with 5 goals and 3 assists in 62 appearances, Benjamin Seska, with 17 passes in 2 appearances, and Joshua Zirkzee, with 3 goals and an assist in 32 appearances. Their midfield unit covers some top players, such as Mason Mount, with 48 passes and 3 tackles in 2 appearances, Bruno Fernandes, with 109 passes and 5 tackles, Casemiro, with 58 passes and 5 tackles, Manuel Ugarte, with 28 passes and 3 tackles, and Kobbie Mainoo, with 3 goals and an assist in 50 appearances. Manchester United also has a strong defensive side which includes Patrick Dorgu, with 4 tackles and an interception in 2 appearances, Matthijs de Ligt, with 2 tackles and 4 blocks, Leny Yoro, with 3 tackles and 5 interceptions, Luke Shaw, with 4 tackles, Harry Maguire, with 8 passes in 2 appearances, Tyrell Malacia, with 48 tackles and 26 interceptions in 25 appearances, and Lisandro Martínez, with 104 tackles and 70 interceptions in 58 appearances. Altay Bayindir will again be their primary goalkeeper, having conceded 2 goals and made 4 saves in 2 appearances.

Manchester United will be heading to the next game with an in-form line-up, which will help the team to secure its first win of the new season against Burnley. But their form has not been good in the last five matches, as the team has scored a combined total of just 3 goals while conceding 5 goals in these games. This highlights the changes Manchester United requires in its attacking side if it wants to secure a win by a decent margin against Burnley. As of now, it is unlikely for Manchester United to win the next game against Burnley with a clean sheet.

On the other hand, Burnley has just regained its winning momentum, which might help it in the upcoming match against Manchester United. With a win and a loss in its first two games, the team holds 11th spot in the Premier League standings. Their form has been commendable, with the team scoring a combined total of 12 goals and conceding 5 in its last five matches. This season, they have scored 2 goals, putting the goal-per-match rate at 1, and they have also made 12 shots, out of which only 3 were on target inside the box. Their XG rate stands at 1.93, and they have also secured 688 passes in the two games. But Burnley’s defence has been a concern, with the team conceding 3 goals, which puts their goals conceded per match rate at 1.50, and they have also secured 14 interceptions with 6 blocks.

Burnley will be heading to the next game with forwards such as Jacob Bruun Larsen, with 22 passes in 2 appearances, Lyle Foster, with 33 passes, Jaidon Anthony, with a goal and an assist, Marcus Edwards, Loum Tchaouna, with 16 passes, Zeki Amdouni, with 5 goals and an assist in 34 appearances, and Manuel Benson. Their midfield unit covers players like Lesley Ugochukwu, with 38 passes and 2 tackles in 2 appearances, Hannibal Mejbri, with 32 passes and 3 tackles, Josh Cullen, with a goal and an assist, Aaron Ramsey, and Josh Laurent, with 21 passes and 2 tackles. The team also has strong players in its defensive side such as Kyle Walker, with a tackle and 2 interceptions in 2 appearances, Quilindschy Hartman, with 6 tackles and 2 interceptions, Maxime Estève, with 2 interceptions and 2 blocks, Hjalmar Ekdal, with 2 tackles and an interception, Joe Worrall, with a tackle and a block in an appearance, Axel Tuanzebe, with 60 tackles and 43 interceptions in 50 appearances, Connor Roberts, with 38 tackles and 29 interceptions in 39 appearances, and Oliver Sonne, with 23 passes in 2 appearances. Martin Dúbravka will be their primary goalkeeper in the next game, holding a clean sheet and 4 saves in 2 appearances.

With the next game being the third of the season for both teams, none of the players from either Manchester United or Burnley is close to a suspension in the Premier League. Manchester United, however, doesn't have a good record in this case, which makes them likely to get at least two yellow cards in the match against Burnley.

Favorites to win

Manchester United

Manchester United will be heading over to its upcoming match against Burnley as the favourites to win. Taking the home ground advantage, the team has also been strong against Burnley in the head-to-head encounters, which will help them to come out victorious. But their form remains a question, as the team has secured three losses and just one win in its last five Premier League matches. On the other hand, Burnley will be eager to take advantage of its regained form and carry the winning momentum to the next game. In their last five matches, Burnley has secured four wins and just one loss. Our prediction is that Manchester United will win the upcoming match against Burnley by a margin of at least two goals.
