United were held to a 1-1 draw by Burnley at Old Trafford last time out. Dropping two points meant United missed out on the opportunity to tighten their grip on sixth spot. They headed into this weekend's fixtures one point ahead of seventh-placed Newcastle United.
With their Champions League qualification hopes officially over, the best United can hope for is Europa League qualification. Erik ten Hag's side can achieve that via a sixth place finish or by beating Manchester City at Wembley to win the FA Cup. MEN Sport has had a close look at what a perfect weekend would like for the Reds this week.
Three points on the board
At this stage of the season points have more substance than performances. United's style of play has attracted heavy scrutiny this term but getting a win on Monday night is more important than playing well.
