Cunha remains Manchester United's hope. |
Match context
- Premier League Round 21
- Location: Turf Moor (Burnley)
- Burnley went into the match against Manchester United after a 0-2 defeat to Brighton, a result that extended their winless streak in the Premier League to 11 games. Burnley have only earned 12 points from 20 matches, dropping to 19th place in the table, 9 points behind 17th-placed Nottingham Forest.
- Manchester United have just sacked manager Ruben Amorim following the draw against Leeds. This was the Red Devils' second consecutive draw against opponents in the lower half of the table, after the draw against Wolves.
- Despite remaining in sixth place in the league table, MU have been unconvincing recently. Darren Fletcher is also making his first appearance managing the first team after a stint with the youth teams.
Force
- Burnley will be without Josh Cullen, Zeki Amdouni, Maxime Esteve, Jordan Beyer, Joe Worrall, and Connor Roberts due to injury.
- Zian Flemming may also be absent due to fitness issues. Axel Tuanzebe is currently on duty at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
- MU will be without Kobbie Mainoo, Matthijs de Ligt, and Harry Maguire due to fitness issues. Bryan Mbeumo, Amad Diallo, and Noussair Mzaraoui are participating in the Africa Cup of Nations.
- Bruno Fernandes and Mason Mount are expected to return.
Notable statistics
- Turf Moor has never been a strong home ground for Burnley when they host Manchester United. The home team hasn't won against MU in their last eight consecutive matches, suffering six defeats (seven of which they failed to score).
- Burnley have gone 11 consecutive Premier League matches without a win.
