Manager Michael Carrick will be delighted with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 12 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. Away goals have been high on their agenda recently, having scored in 5 of their last 6 away league games. They don't have an enviable away record at the moment, having conceded at least one goal in 15 of their last 16 league matches way from home, making valuable points hard to acquire on the road.
