Team News

Southampton
Man Utd
  • Gavin Bazunu will remain sidelined with an Achilles injury until early 2025.
  • Kamaldeen Sulemana and Ross Stewart are both back in training, but the former will miss out here.
  • Mason Mount, Victor Lindelof, Luke Shaw, Rasmus Hojlund, Tyrell Malacia and Leny Yoro are all absent.
  • Bruno Fernandes is a minor doubt after picking up a knock on international duty.
  • Manuel Ugarte could make his first start for the club here, in place of Casemiro.

Prediction

  • Southampton return from the first international break of the season still searching for their first league victory of the season.
  • The Saints netted their first league goal of the campaign in the 3-1 defeat to Brentford last time out.
  • Visitors Manchester United suffered back-to-back defeats before the break, with Liverpool cruising to a 3-0 victory at Old Trafford two weeks ago.
  • Three of the last four meetings between these two sides have ended in a draw, though the away side should really be claiming the points here.

  • United have to win here 2-0

  • 2-1 fir man utd. Bruno TSA

  • From now on is where we will see the best of Bruno Fernandes, I think he'll be great aged 30-36, he's that sort of player.

  • @Geolardo I agree , he does need pace either hes only missed 6 games in nearly 600 career games

  • Bruno Fernandes To Assist Or Score Anytime +105

  • @KingKeno EZ Dime

  • SUBS Bayindir, Maguire, Garnacho, Casemiro, Antony, Ugarte, Evans, Wheatley, Collyer.

  • MU Onana, Mazraoui, de Ligt, Martinez, Dalot, Eriksen, Mainoo, Diallo, Bruno Fernandes, Rashford, Zirkzee.

  • There is a high possibility of a draw, 1-1

  • United win . I see a hat trick here

  • 0-1

  • Southampton have kept an average of 68 % possession in their 3 league matches but they are still finding it difficult to see off their opponents.

  • @Marbella Sounds like Van Gaal during United days

  • Good game. Was getting worried ETH could lose the job. We need him! :D

  • That will keep ETH in a job for another couple of games at least :( We will wait until Christmas then boot him out.

  • @harteless why would they? and even if so, mug Tuchel is any better?

  • @koziol.mutant No, why would they? It's all falling into place now. :D

  • @koziol.mutant I'd takeThomas Frank

  • A striker should be selfish, but Zirkzee is too selfish and seems like he will cost United more games against better opponents.

  • when De Ligt and Rashford are best on the pitch you must know how useless Southampton are.

  • I don't think Ugarte will start as far as Man United board talks in papers ... it would be great to see him start and with him they have big chance to avoid goal. But now come the second part, scoring goals .. My pure opinion half time X and final 2. Close game i think not many goals. But than again they might wake up with this free days and start play as they should.

  • @Genovese I agree . I think it will be the same lineup just Amad for Garnacho on RW. Ugarte and Garnacho just came back from South America on Thursday .. don’t see them starting. Maybe coming on as subs.
