Manchester United will be looking to make a winning start to the restart when they face Championship table-toppers Burnley in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup on Wednesday evening.
United, who beat Aston Villa 4-2 in the last round, will be going in search of a third successive win in all competitions following their dramatic 2-1 win over Fulham prior to the World Cup. Alejandro Garnacho netted a last-gasp winner to ensure the Reds signed off in style, meaning they will be looking to pick up where they left off.
The Reds, who last faced Burnley in this competition back in 2002, know that a win will move them to within three games of the final at Wembley at the end of February. Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur have already been knocked out of the competition and one of Liverpool and Manchester City will also bow out at this stage, meaning United could be in with a strong chance of ending their trophy drought in a little over two months time.
