    GOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLL FOR MAN UNITED! Action and reaction! That's what you call a swift response. Mbeumo needs just two minutes to restore his side's lead, finishing from close range after a cross from Dalot.

  • 45+8'
    HT (1-0): United lead 1-0 at Old Trafford thanks to Casemiro's corner strike, while Burnley have struggled to create meaningful chances. Cunha had to leave the pitch injured, and Dubravka has been kept busy with several key saves. We'll see what happens next!
  • 45+4'
    Bruno Fernandes fires a brilliant effort wide, which could easily have been another goal for his side.
  • 45'
    Eight minutes added!
  • 43'
    Dubravka has nothing but work on his hands, currently keeping his team in the game with some crucial saves.
  • 40'
    The ball keeps rolling at Old Trafford. A 1-0 lead for United might not satisfy the fans—and certainly not Amorim—given Burnley's lacklustre efforts so far. The half-time break could see plenty of changes.
  • 37'
    The Red Devils are the team in control right now, securing yet another corner.
  • 35'
    The Clarets are looking to trouble United with their attacks, but so far they haven't been as effective as they'd hoped.
  • 33'
    Burnley's defence is leaving plenty to be desired. United aren't at their sharpest at the momento, yet it's clear the visitors' backline is giving them room to operate.

    Anything other than victory and another change of management could be on the cards during the upcoming international break.
  • PRVW
    The visit of newly-promoted Burnley offers the perfect chance to rectify that record and improve on Amorim's paltry seven wins from 29 league games.
  • PRVW
    Their only Premier League goal of the season so far was turned into his own net by Fulham's Rodrigo Muniz in last weekend's 1-1 draw, while Cunha and Mbeumo missed crucial penalties in the embarrassing defeat to Grimsby.
  • PRVW
    Despite spending £200 million on Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha and Benjamin Sesko, United are yet to click as an attacking force.
  • PRVW
    A return of one point from two Premier League games is also not what the Portuguese needed after the Red Devils' worst campaign since being relegated in 1974 last season.
  • PRVW
    United suffered the latest humilation of Amorim's reign with defeat to fourth-tier Grimsby in the League Cup on Wednesday.
