The visit of Manchester United is still a massive occasion despite them being 1/7 by the end of August NOT to win a Trophy this season but this is a game the Clarets must think they can get something from despite the array of talent in the red of Manchester United.
One of the most popular bets in the first half of the week has been the 37/40 for both teams to score at Turf Moor with neither side looking particularly strong at the back in the opening salvos of the season.
Can history repeat itself five years on? Danny Ings to score the only goal of the game is 60/1 at BetVictor.

They are 6/4 to finish bottom of the table but there might never be a better time than to meet a United side who can surely only improve over the coming months.
