Man Utd

Manchester United's last competitive outing was away at Fulham in the Premier League on the 13th of November. Eriksen fired the Red Devils in front after 14 minutes but just after the hour mark, former Man Utd player James equalised for the hosts. The game appeared to be heading for a draw until deep into stoppage time when Gamacho got on the end of an Eriksen pass to win the game for the visitors.

Burnley

Burnley had the home advantage against Middlesbrough last time out but had to wait until the hour mark before it had any effect to buy premium soccer tips on the game. The first-half ended goalless but Boro took the lead in the 49th-minute and that sparked Burnley into life. Manuel equalised on the hour mark and then put Burnley 2-1 up 7-minutes later. An own goal from Howson sealed the points for the hosts in the 72nd-minute but the game ended on a sour note for Burnely as defender Roberts was sent off in the 89th-minute.

Predicted Lineup: Murić, Roberts, Beyer, Harwood-Bellis, Maatsen, Cork, Guðmunds­son, Brownhill, Cullen, Rodríguez & Manuel
