Game 2 Preview - Burnley vs Manchester United (Aug 19, 2009)

Man United won their opening game of the season against Birmingham City 1-0, thanks to Rooney's goal. They now travel to another newly promoted club - Burnley, who have been back in the Premier League for the first time since 1976. The Clarets lost their opening fixture against Stoke City and it is hard to see them bounce back from that defeat, especially withouth their influential captain Steven Caldwell. United are in the driving seat to take advantage of this and move further up the table. This is an excellent opportunity for Rooney to continue his goal scoring this season. I am going for a 2-0 away win.
