Man Utd boss Ten Hag: Burnley play intense football

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag expects a battle against Burnley on Saturday.

United host Burnley on the back of victory over Sheffield United.

He said: "They play high-intensity football. They have changed their approach slightly in the season. They have had good results and are hard to beat, and all the compliments to Vincent and his staff.

"We can't afford to think [it's only X] about any opponent. With the team we have available, we have to be creative. We have to take every opponent with 100% focus. We can't allow and do a little bit less.

"I think the fans are behind us. When entering Old Trafford, I heard the reception, it was louder than I had heard. When we are away, always very supportive, backing the team and I think there is a good connection with the team and the fans."
