Man United host Sunderland at Old Trafford on Saturday hoping to bounce back from their 3-1 defeat to Brentford last weekend.
15:00 Saturday - Manchester United vs Sunderland
The Red Devils suffered a 3-1 defeat away to Brentford in their last Premier League match.
Manchester United's form has been inconsistent, having lost three of their last six matches in the Premier League.
Sunderland, on the other hand, are flying high after a 0-1 victory away to Nottingham Forest in their most recent Premier League fixture.
The Black Cats are undefeated in four of their opening six Premier League matches.
One interesting fact is that there have been over 2.5 goals scored in Manchester United's last 4 games in the Premier League, meanwhile, Sunderland have seen under 2.5 goals in their last 3 games in the Premier League.
Over the last six meetings, Manchester United have won four, drawn one, and lost one against Sunderland. Their last meeting was a 3-0 Sunderland win in April 2017.
Man United vs Sunderland Match Prediction
Manchester United's desperate start to the season continued at Brentford after they were beaten for a third time in six games to leave them just three points above the relegation zone.
The Red Devils' only two Premier League wins have come at Old Trafford, but it's impossible to be confident they'll win any given game right now.
Sunderland have been the pick of the newly-promoted sides with last weekend's victory at Nottingham Forest putting them 5th in the table.
Therefore, the Black Cats should be confident of improving on their terrible Old Trafford record over the years, which stands at just one win since 1968.
