Comments and bets MU vs Burnley: Patchwork squad
According to statistics, MU is the team with the second highest number of players performing national team service at the World Cup in the foggy country. Things were even more unfavorable when most of their pillars went deep in the tournament taking place in Qatar and were forced to focus late, not in the best shape.
Thus, it is likely that coach Ten Hag will have changes in the starting lineup of the Red Devils in the match against Burnley in the fourth round of the English League Cup tonight. In theory, Burnley is not a formidable team while playing in the English First Division and the ticket to the next big man MU is the expected result.
But as mentioned above, with a mixed squad, it is hard to expect the Old Trafford team to win a distinct victory. In fact, if the competition is subjective, NHM does not exclude MU will solve the opponent in extra time, or the 11-meter penalty shootout.
Remember, MU is not in good form when losing both friendlies in the past week. Meanwhile, the English first-class team Burnley has the best squad and performance and they promise to bring many surprises to the Old Trafford team. Notably, Burnley has only lost once in the last 22 matches in all competitions.
