Man United Team News:
This is already a must win game for United and Amorim after 1 point from 2 league games and a disgraceful loss to Grimsby Town in the EFL Cup 2nd round on Wednesday.
Maguire started and played all 90 minutes on Wednesday against Grimsby. While he could also start against Burnley this weekend, De Ligt, Yoro and Shaw may be in line to start.
Shaw and Yoro were not in the EFL Cup squad on Wednesday night. This does not seem to be injury related, Heaven and Fredricson just took the CB spots in the squad for that game.
Amad has to continue to start at right wing-back. United looked so much more threatening with him playing there than with Dalot there.
Sesko started and played 90 minutes against Grimsby. While it’s certainly possible Mount starts, joining Mbeumo and Cunha in attack as he did in GW1 against Arsenal, Sesko was a £75 million signing and United are facing a relegation candidate in Burnley. You have to think Amorim starts a true striker for this game.
Bayindir will continue to start in goal.

Burnley Team News:
No major injury concerns coming off a GW2 victory against fellow promoted Sunderland. A huge first win of the season for the the Clarets.
I would think we see an unchanged starting lineup from manager Scott Parker. United can be got at and also do not create high quality chances like other top sides, so I don’t see a reason Parker would be desperate to shift to a 5 man defence for this game and should stick with the 4-2-3-1 that he has used for the majority of his time as Burnley manager.
