Manchester United made a strong statement of their intent in the last three outings, beating Tottenham Hotspur, Brighton and Arsenal. There is no doubt the new manager’s impact at Manchester United and the Red Devils are still pushing on with the impact and Burnley will be firm underdogs here. They are coming straight from a heavy loss to Manchester City in the FA Cup and meeting a side straight from a 3 – 1 win over Arsenal doesn’t leave them well placed. They have failed to score in the last two matches and will really hope they can get back there in this game as they are just three points and two places outside the relegation region. Manchester United have seven wins and just one loss in their 11 matches at home in the league this season. They have scored at least two goals in six of the last seven matches at home this season while Burnley have managed two wins and 10 losses in the last 15 away matches. Furthermore, Burnley have not beaten Manchester United in the last eight meetings.
7 wins from 7 games for the new manager and no reason to see why that won't be 8.. Season in the Premier League (England), Manchester United FC stats show they are performing Good overall, currently placing them at 6/20 in the Premier League Table, winning 57% of matches. On average Manchester United score 2 goals and concede 1.43 goals per match. 78% of this Manchester United's matches end with both teams scoring and their average total goals per match is 3.43.
Manchester United vs Burnley Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will become the first ever manager in the history of the Premier League to win his first seven league games if the Red Devils beat Burnley at Old Trafford – an extraordinary achievement irrespective of what games the fixture list has thrown up. United are unbeaten in their last 19 home games against the Clarets in all competitions and the players will be aware of what record the Norwegian will break if they keep the points. I expect history to be made at Old Trafford.
Burnley got whacked by Manchester City in the FA Cup on Saturday. I know the Clarets made a lot of changes but, even at full strength, this is another tough game for them. With eight wins out of eight, it is hugely impressive what interim manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has done at Manchester United. Goals are the key and United are averaging 2.75 of those a game under Solskjaer. Do that, and you have got to concede three to get beaten. They are playing well all over the pitch, though, and defensively they have been sound too. I don't see Burnley getting any joy on Tuesday night.
It's now 8 straight wins for United new coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after United's 1-3 away win at Arsenal. Burnley lost their last game 5-0 away to Manchester City. And Manchester United will make it another Manchester win over them. Burnley have lost away to Man City, Arsenal and Tottenham this season. Something incredible is happening. Ole, continue, please. Ole, Ole, Ole
