Manchester United will be making the trip to Turf Moor this weekend as they look to return to winning ways after three straight defeats.
The Red Devils kickstarted their Champions League campaign on Wednesday and sustained a 4-3 loss to Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich. Now though, it’s back to Premier League action.
United have, unfortunately, tasted defeat three times already in the top division and currently sit 13th-placed.
Injuries have been an overwhelming issue for Erik ten Hag across the summer and since the season began, with the list of unavailable players growing by the week. The manager has yet to deploy what would be his first-choice and strongest starting XI.

Ten Hag provides team news
Ten Hag was questioned about potential returnees in his pre-match press conference but kept tight-lipped about the players’ involvement in tomorrow’s game.
It seems as though numerous Reds could undergo late fitness tests to determine their fitness.
“Maybe, as you say, Harry Maguire [could return]. We will see better after training [on Friday afternoon],” the manager told MUTV. “But [Raphael] Varane will train and we will see. [Sofyan] Amrabat, he will train and we will see. [Mason] Mount as well, but they all didn’t play for a short or longer term. Varane, obviously, was the shortest [time] out.”
