Sports Innovation previews the Premier League match between Burnley and Manchester United and offers team stats, betting tips and the latest odds.

Manchester United resume their Premier League campaign on Tuesday with a trip to Turf Moor to take on Burnley.

After Middlesbrough dumped them out of the FA Cup last week, the pressure is on. Manchester United must deliver or else risk falling out of the top-four in the Premier League table. They currently hold the fourth and final spot, but only by a single point.

One notable problem the Red Devils have had under Ralf Rangnick is a lack of goals, having only scored more than once in three of the interim manager’s 11 matches in charge.

This could mean trouble against a Burnley side that keeps things tight at the back. In fact, the Clarets have drawn 0-0 in their last two games against Arsenal and Watford. They are bottom of the league, with 10 draws in 19 matches and just a single win.
