Manchester United are tonight desperate for victory as they travel to face newly-promoted Burnley in the Premier League. Despite an impressive maiden season at Old Trafford that included a first major trophy for some six years and a third-place finish, Erik ten Hag has come under increasing pressure after a dismal start to the season for his side. United continue to battle an injury crisis and off-field issues and have lost four of their first six matches across all competitions to open the new campaign, including three in a row at the hands of Arsenal, Brighton and Bayern Munich, with the 4-3 scoreline in Wednesday’s Champions League opener in Bavaria not a fair reflection of the game.
