Manchester United Predicted Lineup:
Man United Team News:
Maguire, Yoro and De Ligt started against Fulham as United’s back 3 and I think this is their best trio of starting centre-backs and Amorim’s preferred trio.
Amad has to continue to start at right wing-back. United looked so much more threatening with him playing there than with Dalot there.
Whether Sesko gets his first start will be the big question for Amorim and United heading into GW3. Amorim already praised Sesko’s fitness levels and he got 30 minutes against Arsenal and Fulham, and I think he does get his first start in a United shirt against Fulham with Mount dropping to the bench.
Bayindir will continue to start in goal.

Burnley Predicted Lineup:
Burnley Team News:
No major injury concerns coming off a GW2 victory against fellow promoted Sunderland. A huge first win of the season for the the Clarets.
I would think we see an unchanged starting lineup from manager Scott Parker. United can be got at and also do not create high quality chances like other top sides, so I don’t see a reason Parker would be desperate to shift to a 5 man defence for this game and should stick with the 4-2-3-1 that he has used for the majority of his time as Burnley manager.
