Man Utd vs Burnley: Preview, predictions and lineups | OneFootball

With the Premier League unlikely to secure five Champions League spots for next season, United are poised for a campaign away from Europe's premier club competition in 2024/25. Fourth-place Aston Villa currently sit 13 points clear of Erik ten Hag's Red Devils having played a game more.

United were victorious in midweek against the soon-to-be-relegated Sheffield United, but they did try their best to endure a rather humiliating night. The Blades took two leads on Wednesday before United rallied in the second half to win 4-2.

Man Utd vs Burnley score prediction

Chaos is always around the corner when Manchester United are involved, and another goal-fest at Old Trafford is not out of the realms of possibility.

Burnley have finally found a groove of some semblance to their Championship-winning campaign last season, but their upsurge may well have come a couple of weeks too late. Still, the Clarets are confident and beginning to purr, and they should create high-quality chances against the sieve that is Man Utd's out-of-possession structure.
