Live on BTSport 1: Sat 12.45: It’s 14/5 (Bwin) for both teams to score in a Man Utd victory at Burnley in the Premier League.
Even though he won’t have underestimated the task facing him, it’s fair to assume that life at Old Trafford has proven trickier than Louis van Gaal was expecting.
Indeed, a point from two Premier League games against Swansea and Sunderland followed by a 4-0 mauling against League One MK Dons in the Capital One Cup represent a miserable start to the campaign for Manchester United, who will already be looking at the trip to Burnley as a must-win encounter.
Van Gaal broke the British transfer record this week, bringing in Angel Di Maria for just short of £60m, in an attempt to revive United’s fortunes and although the Argentine winger can’t be expected to make an instant impact, his acquisition can give the squad a lift.
Subsequently, they should be able to justify the 8/13 favouritism given to them by BetVictor at Turf Moor, where the pointless Clarets are Betfred’s 11/2 outsiders.
Nevertheless, United have looked far from convincing defensively so far so the hosts can make them work hard for the points and a case can be made for the 14/5 Bwin post against a combination of an away victory and both teams finding the net.
Recommended Bets:
Man Utd to win and both teams to score – 14/5 (Bwin)
