Manchester United
midfielder Scott McTominay suffered a suspected knee muscle injury on Boxing
Day and is likely to miss the trip to Burnley. Paul Pogba might replace
McTominay having come off the bench in Manchester United's previous two games.
Which one will perform
best Manchester United or Burnley?

Michael Owen is
expecting to see Manchester United be held to a draw by Burnley in the Premier
League on Saturday night. The Red Devils head into the game fresh from their
impressive 4-1 victory over Newcastle United in the Premier League
on Boxing Day at Old Trafford.
That victory was a
welcome one for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men who had suffered a surprise 2-0 defeat
to Watford before Christmas. Manchester United will now be looking to make it
back to back wins in the Premier League when they travel to Burnley on Saturday
night.
However, former England
and Red Devils striker Owen is not expecting to see Manchester United claim a
victory and he is instead tipping Burnley to hold the visitors to a draw.
Burnley forward Ashley
Barnes is set to return to the starting line-up for the visit of Manchester United.
Michael Owen column for Bet Victor
Writing in his column
for Bet Victor Owen said: “One goal has been sufficient in
Burnley’s previous couple of games and I imagine seeing another low-scoring
affair at Turf Moor when Manchester United is the guests.
“Man Utd disappointed
at Vicarage Road on Sunday but did put four past Newcastle at Old Trafford last
time out. I feel chances will be at a premium and cannot split the teams.”
Manchester United presently
finds itself in seventh place in the Premier League table and four points
behind fourth-placed Chelsea FC.
United’s manager Ole
Gunnar Solskjaer said: “I do not think it is rational to be expected to perform
at the better of your level both spiritually and tangibly 48 hours after you
have played. But I think we are in the top position to perform on Saturday. One
the game beside Newcastle was over after 45 minutes. Two we are fresh.”
After this weekend’s
game, Manchester United will travel to Arsenal in their first game of 2020 on 1
January. The Red Devils have won seven and lost five of their 19 games in the
Premier League under Solskjaer so far this season.
