Man United Host Burnley on Saturday in 3pm Blackout as Amorim Chases First League Win

United enter the game under scrutiny after a shock cup exit to League Two side Grimsby Town.

Overview

  • Kick-off is 15:00 BST at Old Trafford with no live UK TV coverage due to the blackout, while MUTV, the United App and ManUtd.com carry Matchday Live from 13:55 with radio commentary and updates.
  • United are winless in the league after a 1-0 loss to Arsenal and a 1-1 draw at Fulham, increasing pressure on head coach Ruben Amorim.
  • Lisandro Martinez remains unavailable as he continues knee rehab, and Noussair Mazraoui is nearing a return with further fitness updates expected in the pre-match press conference.
  • After heavy midweek rotation, reports suggest further changes are likely, with Altay Bayindir a possible starter in goal and Benjamin Sesko expected to lead the attack.
  • Newly promoted Burnley travel with confidence after a 2-0 win over Sunderland, though Jordan Beyer, Connor Roberts and Zeki Amdouni are set to miss out and Manuel Benson is building fitness; limited hospitality tickets remain on resale from about £199 to £249.
