Manchester United's defence continues to look shaky

Kick-off 3pm Tuesday

Manchester United let two points slip through their fingers when they were pegged back by a last-gasp Leicester equaliser on Saturday, the second time in a week they had conceded late.

That could play on the minds of a defence who looked disorganised at times against the Foxes. Burnley, who have taken five points from four away games against the top six, may be tough to keep out.

The Clarets were a pushover on the road last year but they have improved greatly and a physical approach could make for an uncomfortable afternoon for the United faithful.

Jose Mourinho has great forward talent at his disposal but he may be unable to keep his ninth home clean sheet of the league campaign.
