I can only see a defeat here TBH, if we limit it to 2-0 I'll be happy enough. What we don't want is to be on the end of a hiding that'll destroy our recent confidence.

I've a sneaking feeling that we might just hold them at bay.

It will be like the Alamo, but we will remain resolute as always and come away with a point.

I think we're the best team in the Premier League at cancelling teams out. If it was a game of Chess we would only lose against Man City - that's it.

3 - 0

1:1 with UTD getting the equaliser from the spot 2 minutes into added time for a disputed foul which starts just outside the area............

Listening to Moyles on Radio X this morning discussing his bets for tonight's footy. One of the "team" is a United fan and he said both teams have rubbish defences so the bet should be both teams to score. I bet the bookmakers love taking money off him - defence and keeper are our absolute strengths but we have real difficulty sticking it in the net at the other end.

2-0 clarets

Home won 1-0 clarets. J Mumbongo

Wood & Barnes on fire tonight and a mighty Clarets win!

0-3

Hoping for a decent performance and no annoying pens, etc.

0-3

We don't score. They do!

A sneaky one nil....with a very very special goal......UTC!

Heart says resolute 1-1
Head says an aggrieved 1-2

2-1.

That was Ole Ole Ole Ole, Ole.......
I'll get me coat
2-1 Clarets Brady and Wood.

Just been reading their fans forum - what a set of arrogant, self-righteous, non local, living on memories bunch they truly are. Would love to send them back to Salford with a bloody nose.
Praying for a Robbie Blake inspirational moment !!.

We did last time we played them

Sadly I can't see past a comfortable 0-2 tbh.

0-3

Their performances have been a little unconvincing apparently, but they have done enough to keep things ticking over, especially away from home.

Probably more of the same tonight, and I'm not ruling out some officialdom intervention to ensure it.

0-2

0-2. Fernandes pen and Martial.

1...0 to Burnley ffs! UTC.

0-2 unfortunately - hope I’m wrong!!

1-0 or 0-5

1-3

1-1

Normally would be confident of a draw, minimum, however it very much depends what sort of team SD can muster?

A little aside.
If Maguire plays tonight and then gets booked he misses the liverpool game at weekend which will be the last thing they need

Burnley I Man U (and ref) 1 penalty equaliser for them

This is interesting, and it gives us a 0-0 draw tonight.

Look at the 'Match Facts' though. Man U don't commit a single foul in the whole game. That's the credibility shot.

Got to wait for the line ups to see which injured players have made a return and see any players missing due to COVID. Would go for a 2-1 defeat.

Get a grip!!! If you can’t post a good prediction don’t post at all!

Clarets to win 3-0 (goals coming courtesy of some Burnley players)

I still think OGS is overrated, despite their recent upturn. And I hope we don't play into their hands, and let them hit us on the break. And if we do, I can't see anything but defeat. But if we can sit tight, and pressurise their full backs, then I can see some sort of positive outcome. Although with the quality they have, and having rested some players against Watford, I can still see them scoring at least one.

I'll go 1-1

But 1-2 and 0-2 are still strong possibilities

1 -1 unless we play like we did against MKDons, then it'll be 0 - 5

0-2 We just dont score enough.
