Burnley Form
Burnley were seconds away from a shock FA Cup third-round defeat by MK Dons before debutant keeper Will Norris inspired a penalty shootout win. The League One visitors were heading for victory with Cameron Jerome’s first-half header against the run of play appearing to be enough but Matej Vydra equalised with almost the last kick of the game.
After extra-time, Norris saved two Dons penalties in the shootout and Phil Bardsley scored the decisive spot-kick to send the Clarets through. Burnley boss Sean Dyche had named an experienced side including several of his key players in the club’s first outing in a new era under American businessman Alan Pace, although Norris was given his chance to impress.
Having qualified for the fourth round for the fifth time in the past six seasons, attention now turns back to the Premier League as the Clarets look to pull further clear of the drop-zone. Dwight McNeil, Charlie Taylor and Jay Rodriguez are expected to be back in the squad with Jimmy Dunne likely to be the only player absent from Dyche’s squad on Tuesday night.
Manchester United Form
Stand-in skipper Scott McTominay scored a fourth-minute header that proved decisive enough to see Manchester United through in their FA Cup third-round tie against Watford on Saturday from Old Trafford. It was an unconvincing victory for the Reds, who fielded a much-changed side from last Wednesday’s EFL Cup semi-final defeat by Manchester City.
McTominay found the net early on, rising to meet Alex Telles’ corner. The hosts failed to extend their advantage despite creating chances; Juan Mata was unable to find a finish to an excellent three-man move, then Daniel James and substitute Marcus Rashford had shots saved after the break. But United keeper Dean Henderson was also called into action.
Overall, there were few positives for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side as the likes of Mason Greenwood and Donny van de Beek did little to press their claims for a regular starting slot. Jesse Lingard showed glimpses of form but eventually faded, whilst Eric Bailly was withdrawn before the break after a heavy head clash, making the Ivorian doubtful for Tuesday.
Burnley v Manchester United betting tip
Burnley bagged a 2-0 triumph at Old Trafford In their last Premier League meeting with Manchester United but the Clarets haven’t claimed successive league victories over the Red Devils since 1968. The hosts are also winless in their last five Turf Moor tussles with United since their 2009 victory, failing to score in each of those five following fixtures (W0-D1-L4).
