Robin van Persie has netted seven goals in six Barclays Premier League games against Stoke City, including one on his only appearance against them for the Red Devils.
Manchester United 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.
Antonio Valencia has ended up on the winning side in all 16 Premier League games he has scored in so far – no player has scored in more games and maintained a 100% win rate.
Sir Alex Ferguson's side have scored 27 goals in the opening 30 minutes of games this season, just one fewer than Stoke have managed in total (28) in the 2012-13 PL campaign.
The Red Devils have scored a league-high 13 goals from corner situations in 2012/13, while Stoke have scored a league-high proportion of their goals this way (25% - 7/28).
Manchester United are unbeaten in eight away league games (W6 D2); if they avoid defeat here, they will set the longest unbeaten run on the road this season.
Stoke have only mustered two goals in their last six league games combined, and one of those came from the penalty spot.
Manchester United have had 17 different goalscorers and 17 different players with assists this term; both league-highs.
