Man United travel to the Britannia Stadium to take on struggling Stoke today (2.05pm KO, Live on Sky Sports 1) and look bankers at 13/20 with bet365 and BetVictor to come away with all three points.

The Red Devils have tasted defeat against Chelsea in the FA Cup and in the league last weekend against arch rivals City in their last two matches, but the stats are heavily in their favour as far as this fixture is concerned.

They have won eight and lost none of nine previous Premier League games against Stoke and have not lost to them in the league since December 1984.

Sir Alex’s side are also unbeaten in eight away league games (W6,D2), and if they avoid defeat here will set the longest unbeaten run on the road this season.

As far as the first goalscorer is concerned the 4/1 on offer with Coral and Hills makes plenty of appeal.

The Dutchman has now failed to score in 685 minutes of football in all competitions for the club, but has netted seven goals in six league games against Stoke – including one on his only appearance against them for United.

He can also be backed at a standout 6/5 with BetVictor to net anytime, and that looks a cracking price which should be snapped up.

Another bet well worth considering is for United to win to nil at 13/8 with Ladbrokes as Stoke have managed just two goals in their last six league games and one of those came from the penalty spot.
