MUN vs BUR Fantasy Football Team & Tips

Captain Options

Cristian Ronaldo was not involved in much action against Newcastle United. However, he still remains the club’s top scorer this season. He will lead the lines for the Red Devils once again.

Edinson Cavani grabbed the equalizer for Manchester United against the Magpies. The veteran striker’s off-the bench cameo is expected to earn him a place in the starting 11 on Thursday.

Differential Pick

Jadon Sancho showed bits of brilliance after coming on in the second half against Newcastle United. The former Borussia Dortmund winger is expected to start against Burnley. He is our differential pick for this encounter.

GK: De Gea
DEF: H. Maguire, R. Varane, J. Tarkowski
MID: J. Sancho, D. van de Beek, D. McNeil, A. Westwood
FOR: C. Ronaldo, E. Cavani, M. Cornet

Who will win today’s football match?

• Manchester United are the favorites to win this encounter, given that Burnley may look a bit rusty due to their prolonged absence.
• Burnley may sense an opportunity to get a few points from this game, given how poor the hosts have been at creating chances.
• We are going for a Manchester United win.

Match Odds: 

Burnley: 43/5
Manchester United: 2/5
