Game Prediction
On April 27, 2024, a match between Manchester United and Burnley, as part of the 35th round of the English Premier League, will take place. The hosts have minimal chances of rising above 6th place, but if they finish unsuccessfully, they risk being left without the European competition. The away team is second to last and must collect points to improve the chances of survival.
Key statistics & trends:
The most popular result at Old Trafford is a 3-1 score in favour of the hosts (it happened 3 times). Generally speaking, a 2-0 score in favour of the grandee is more frequent – 5 times.
Manchester United scored 28% of goals between the 76th-90th minutes of the game.
Burnley has conceded in each of 17 previous matches.
Manchester United – the shape of the team and its analysis: the unsuccessful period has clearly dragged on
“The Red Devils” have generally given up on all fronts compared to the results of a year ago. For instance, there happened the earliest possible departures from the Champions League (4th place in a pretty easy group) and the League Cup. They almost embarrassed themselves at Wembley on Sunday, allowing Coventry to come back from 0-3 down after 71 minutes of the game and taking the matter to a penalty shoot-out. Still, Manchester United went to the cup final. Bruno Fernandes and his opponent’s teammates often allow a lot in the Premier League. Those matches turned out to be spectacular, but it’s unlikely that a 3-4 score in the struggle with Chelsea and a 2-2 draw in the confrontation with Bournemouth pleased the fans. Even Sheffield United was allowed to score first. Unless a fighting draw with Liverpool is a real plus: the team spoiled the old enemy’s chances for the title (it is in favour of Manchester City).
Burnley – the shape of the team and its analysis: everything gets a start in the spring, but it may be too late
“The Clarets” returned after a year in the Premier League. The conditions for “survival” were optimal for the Company’s wards. It is reasonable to mention that 2 frankly “raw” teams appeared with the club. And a rather weak opponent, Everton, and, that is the most important, Nottingham Forest received fines from the officials and lost points. Still, little happened directly on the field. The team believed in Vincent, but it began to have an effect in the spring. There were 2 wins and 10 points in 7 previous rounds. Still, firstly, the club is penultimate, and secondly, the only defeat in this period was made by Everton, which is one of the direct competitors.

Despite tensions with Garnacho, ten Hag continues to use the performer on the field. However, the specialist has already got a lot of personnel problems, especially in defence: Varane, Shaw, Malacia, Martinez, Lindelof and Evans are not able to participate. Also, Martial, who is leaving in the summer, is undergoing surgery; Mount, Amrabat, Kambwala, McTominay and Rashford have got some problems.
Burnley: team news
There are fewer losses if we compare the state of things with the opponent, but they are still enough. Redmond, Beyer, Ramsey, Koleosho and Al-Dakhil will not come to Manchester.
