Manchester United take on local rivals and relegation-threatened Burnley in the Premier League on Saturday.

In their last outing, Erik Ten Hag’s side claimed all three points, but it was a tumultous game against rock-bottom Sheffield United and the Red Devils needed to come from behind twice to claim the 4-2 win.

After that match Manchester United had scored at least two and conceded at least two in their last five matches in all competitions.

Manchester United went into the match battling against Tottenham and Newcastle for the final European places, with too sizeable a gap between themselves and Aston Villa to have a reasonable chance of finishing in the Champions League places.

Follow the latest action from the Premier League below.

PENALTY FOR BURNLEY? After a mix-up involving Casemiro and Onana, the ball breaks to Gudmundsson just outside the area, and the latter's volleyed strike is deflected wide by Dalot. However, before the corner is taken, the VAR halts play for a penalty check! Onana cleared everyone out inside his six-yard box, so it could be a spot-kick to Burnley!

Burnley have now conceded 20 goals in the last 15 minutes of the second half this season - only Sheffield United (27) and Crystal Palace (23) have shipped more in the Premier League. Should their relegation soon be confirmed, such a record will be partly to blame.

The live win-predictor calculator has Manchester United's chances of victory at 26 per cent now, with Burnley on just 12 per cent. Surely a game this wide open can't end in a goalless draw?

Garnacho topples over after O'Shea chases back and tracks him into the area, but there's no reaction from the referee despite Man Utd's penalty claims. There may have been some contact; however, the VAR has not intervened either.

O'Shea streaks through the centre, carrying the ball all the way from his place at centre-back, but his throughball for Foster is ill-considered and the striker has to pull up quickly as he would be caught offside. United's centre remains soft.

Assignon almost latches on to a throughball down the right but just runs out of space, as the ball trickles out of play for a Manchester United goal-kick. Burnley may have lacked a clinical touch so far, but they remain very much in this game.
