Burnley's form has slumped in the past few weeks and they are on a run of seven league and cup games without a win, so not the best of times to be hosting Manchester United. The home side did move into fourth place in the table after a midweek home win over Stoke. That led to a load of rubbish in the press about them possibly making it into the Champions League but a few weeks later, they are seventh and 13 points adrift of the top four, so let's forget that little dream. The last six league games for Burnley have produced just two points, though one of those was at Old Trafford where they let a 2-0 lead slip.  Home form has started to slide with three defeats in the last five and Burnley need some confidence. Manchester United are second in the table going into this weekend and beat Stoke City 3-0 at home on Monday. Just the 12 points behind Manchester City, so they won't be getting their hopes up just yet. They have won their last three league and cup games without conceding a goal and have won six out of 11 away league games this season. Go for Manchester United to get the three points from this game.
