Clockwatch: Join Scott Murray for updates from the League Cup fourth-round tie at Old Trafford.

Burnley are looking to win their first major trophy since they became champions of England in 1960. [Manchester United](https://www.theguardian.com/football/manchester-united) are in their famous red shirts, forcing Burnley out of their trademark claret and into second-choice sky blue. A reminder that they’ve already played two games since the post-World Cup restart, while United are going into tonight’s match cold. Garnacho nearly picking up where he left off at Fulham just before the break. 9 min: A one-on-one chance for Garnacho at Old Trafford … 12 min: Of course this MBM is more of a Clockwatch now, which inevitably means slightly reduced coverage of the United-Burnley game. He slightly miscontrols as he reaches the edge of the 19 min: Garnacho is clipped over as he makes his way down the left. The ball’s rolled infield for Brownhill, who tries to round Casemiro in order to enter the box. The ball ricochets off Rashford and loops back over the keeper’s head and towards the unguarded net. He takes his eye off a backpass and allows the ball to trundle under his foot and towards the open goal. “I’m struggling to think of a club that’s changed an entrenched style so radically from one season to the next.”

In a side featuring five of our World Cup players, Ten Hag has opted to deploy Brazil midfielder Casemiro alongside Victor Lindelof at the heart of our defence this evening. ''Rapha [Raphael Varane] and Licha [Lisandro Martinez] were involved in the World Cup final," added the boss. Also, last week, Rhys Bennett played against Everton [behind closed doors] and he did really well, so we have options there, but tonight Casemiro will play there.''
