 Manchester United - Burnley: Tips, prognosis and odds 0  - ENGLAND: Premier League

 

The English football fans get their money's worth at the weekend. For example, the two FA Cup semi-finals will take place at Wembley Stadium on Saturday and Sunday. But there are also some important and interesting matches on the program in the Premier League.

Free soccer predictions

Manchester United will play Burnley at 5:00 p.m. on Sunday at Old Trafford. The estimated odds imply a clear favorite role in favor of the home side. This assessment is absolutely plausible, after all, the second in the Premier League table and the 16th meet.

The fact that it could still be closer than many believe in the run-up is mainly due to the most recent direct duels. None of the past four trips to the Theater of Dreams ended without points for the Clarets. In general, with Chelsea FC, only one team in English football history has been unbeaten at Manchester United five times in a row. Is the Dyche-Elf now moving up into this elite circle?

In view of these very informative statistics and the fact that the Red Devils only played in Granada on Thursday, we would also advise against predicting a home win between Manchester United and Burnley, especially since only a 1.37 beckons via the Interwetten app at the top. A bet on the number of goals is more sustainable, because we don't expect offensive fireworks with the best of will.

Manchester United stats & current form

Manchester United would have loved to have played in the FA Cup this weekend, but because the Red Devils lost their quarter-finals to Leicester City, "only” one Premier League match at home against Burnley is waiting. But this also offers a certain attraction, because at least United can manage to win a return game against the Weinroten for the first time since 1975/76.

Apart from that, there will be a decision in the fight for the runner-up. Should the team of coach Solskjaer remain unbeaten in the twelfth consecutive league game at the weekend and win the fifth consecutive victory, the second place in the final standings would practically not be deprived of them.

At the same time, the encounter also harbors certain dangers. Especially in light of the fact that the English record champions were still on the pitch in the Europa League on Thursday and only returned to the island from Granada on Friday. Since it was also the fourth English week in a row, a corresponding loss of substance cannot be denied.

United have not conceded twelve goals in the 2020/21 Premier League

From the perspective of the Europa League semi-finalist, it will be all the more important to be defensive and to build on the individual class offensively. The Norwegian coach has been very successful with this "system" so far, which is underlined by four clean sheets in the past six league games and the third few goals conceded by all teams. A bet on the under 2.5 would have been crowned with success in five of the last eight Premier League games. As a result, such a tip can also be plausibly justified between Manchester United and Burnley.

Eric Bailly, Phil Jones and Anthony Martial will not be available due to injury. In return, Marcus Rashford, who paused during the week, as well as Maguire and Shaw, who were banned recently, are returning to the team. Between the posts, however, the question arises once again: De Gea or Henderson?

Expected formation of Manchester United:

Henderson; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw; Fred, McTominay; Rashford, Fernandes, Pogba; Cavani

Burnley Statistics & Current Form

Free soccer predictions

Burnley Football Club has always been known as one of the most uncomfortable opponents in the Premier League. Thanks to a stable defense and a great effectiveness in attack, there is again a lot of evidence this season that the Clarets will secure the class and that although it did not look good in the meantime.

Seven game days before the end, the team of coach Sean Dyche is in 16th place, but has a rather comfortable-looking advantage of seven points on the first relegation place. Nevertheless, the wine reds are warned, because on the past two weekends it set unnecessary defeats against Southampton and Newcastle, which should have shaken the team again. It can therefore be assumed that the performance on Sunday will be concentrated.

Burnley's construction site is the offensive

Statistically it must be said that the guests have one of the weakest attack lines in the Premier League. In total, Chris Wood and Co. only get 25 goals. Only twelve of these could be achieved abroad. It is at least as interesting, however, that almost two thirds of all games with the participation of the Clarets ended with an Under 2.5. Consequently, between Manchester United and Burnley, the odds of a maximum of two hits in the course of the game must be considered.

We assume that the long-time coach of the Weinroten, who has managed to surprise his team in recent years, has not lost four times in a row at Old Trafford and has already scored against Leicester, Arsenal, Everton and Liverpool this season, will choose a very defensive basic orientation and will do everything possible to stay clean for as long as possible. The injured Barney, Brady and Long cannot participate in this endeavor. Rodriguez will likely return to the team for this.

Expected formation of Burnley:

Peacock-Farrell; Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Pieters; Gudmundsson, Brownhill, Westwood, McNeil; Wood, Vydra

Direct comparison / H2H

We've already discussed the fact that Burnley is kind of a feared opponent for ManUtd. The Red Devils could not win four home games in a row against their upcoming opponents. Last year, for example, the Clarets won 2-0 at Old Trafford. The revenge followed in the first half of the current season, when the Solskjaer-Elf struggled to a tired 1-0. We consider a similar fight by bending and breaking to be extremely probable this time as well.

Betting base forecast & Manchester United - Burnley tip

From a purely tabular point of view, the Lancashire guests have a little more at stake than ManUtd. Second place can hardly be taken from the home side, while the Clarets are currently seven points ahead of the first relegation place and want to finally announce their relegation.

In view of the situation in the table, however, it is not surprising that the lower odds on the home win are offered between Manchester United and Burnley. Admittedly, the distribution is too one-sided in our eyes, especially since the underdog did not lose four times in a row at Old Trafford and can shake many favorites with an uncomfortable style of play.

That's why we're trying between Manchester United and Burnley with the tip that a maximum of two goals will be scored. We expect tired hosts and very focused defensively and disciplined Dyche protégés. The first leg ended 1-0 just for the Red Devils, who remain unbeaten for the twelfth time in a row and, looking back on the last seven matches, want to fix the fifth clean sheet at best.

At the top we received a 2.28 from the tested bookmaker Betsson, which we alluded to with a stake of five units. Alternatively, the various betting apps can also be browsed for other options. The fact is, we don't expect a game with many goals on both sides.
