Manchester United and manager Ruben Amorim have had a miserable week.

After a 1-1 draw at Fulham last Sunday, United veered into embarrassment territory with an EFL Cup defeat at Grimsby Town.

United were outplayed by the League Two side for much of the game before eventually taking the second-round tie to spot-kicks, with Bryan Mbeumo’s miss decisive.

Burnley will arrive at Old Trafford in confident mood after beating fellow Premier League new-boys Sunderland 2-0 at home last Saturday and beating second-tier Derby County at Turf Moor in the EFL Cup.
