Storylines
Manchester United: It's been night and day for the Red Devils since Mourinho left. The team is confident, the players look happy and all of that translates to success on the field. It's crazy how one changes can completely modify expectations. In United's last three games, the team has six goals scored, two conceded and wins over Arsenal and Tottenham. This group is rolling.
Burnley: After losing 5-0 to Manchester City in the FA Cup on Saturday, this team isn't entering the contest with any momentum. Over the last 180 minutes, the club has failed to score and has just three shots on the opposing goal. There are some winnable matches coming up, but getting something from this one would be huge for this team's confidence.
