Burnley v Man United odds and prediction as Clarets look to frustrate Rashford and co.

A trio of tricky trips kicks off with the short journey to East Lancashire. Can Manchester United build on the Boxing Day battering of Newcastle United? We asked our United expert Charlotte Duncker how she sees the visit to Burnley going.

Win, lose or draw?

A draw. Again we continue to see United struggle to break down teams who sit deep and put XI men behind the ball and they could be frustrated again. Turf Moor is always a difficult place to go and Saturday's game will be no different. The draw is a very big-priced 13/5 with thepools.com . The draw half-time draw full-time prediction is an even bigger 4/1 .

Who's a good bet for first scorer?

Marcus Rashford. He remains United's biggest goal threat and their  leading goal scorer this season.  But you can still get 11/4 on him to score first at Turf Moor.

Who's on the naughty step? (first yellow card)

Luke Shaw. Always a good bet for first booking. Especially if someone tries to beat him with pace. 

Who's on pens?

Rashford. After rotating earlier in the season they seemed to have settled on Rashford and he was on target against City from the penalty spot.

Will United keep a clean sheet?

No. It's one area where United have really struggled this season and it wouldn't be a surprise to see them concede again. As a result Both Teams To Score is 5/6 with thepools.com.
