EPL: We have to win every single game to put pressure on Man City - Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Manchester United drew 0-0 with Leeds on Sunday to stay on track for a second-place finish in the Premier League as Burnley took a giant step towards survival.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men extended their unbeaten away league run to 24 matches but both teams looked short of imagination in a lacklustre encounter at Elland Road.

The result takes United to 67 points after 33 games, 10 points behind champions-elect Manchester City but eight points clear of third-placed Leicester.

No relegation for Burnley

Earlier, Chris Wood scored a first-half hat-trick as Burnley pummelled Wolves 4-0 to lift themselves nine points clear of the Premier League relegation zone.

Chasing down City already appeared a fruitless task and the stalemate means Pep Guardiola's men would be crowned champions next weekend if they beat Crystal Palace and United lose to Liverpool.

"We have to win every single game to put pressure on City," said the Norwegian manager. "This is two points dropped that makes them very safe. But we push on.

"We have two semis coming up [both legs of the Europa League tie] and Liverpool in the middle. "It was a difficult week last week but it is the business end of the season. You work so that every game matters."

Chelsea win 1-0

Meanwhile, Chelsea took control of the battle to secure Champions League football next season as Timo Werner's goal earned a 1-0 win over West Ham on Saturday.
