The change of head coach did not lead to profound improvements in Manchester United’s results. Ruben Amorim stated that there’s no reason to expect huge things from the team this season.
Despite regular failures, United should be praised for their last two games. First, they drew with Liverpool (2-2) at Anfield and then defeated Arsenal in a penalty shootout.
Manchester approach this week’s match as the absolute favourites. Amorim’s men outplay their opponents in almost every aspect. The hosts can create moments with the help of sharp through balls, take the ball away from the opponent, and also make high-quality short passes.
United played quite well in the match against Liverpool, and it’s unlikely that significant changes should be expected. However, Tyrell Malacia may replace the disqualified Diogo Dalot.
Southampton’s current position is desperate. The newly-promoted club only have a single victory in the Premier League. There’s only a slim chance they’ll survive the relegation battle. The change of head coach hasn’t shown any results.
Southampton lost to their direct competitors, and it’ll be a challenge to crawl out of the last place, not to mention out of the relegation zone.
Despite a lot of problems, Southampton have something to surprise their opponents with. It’s worth noting the high level of individual defenders. The team benefits from creating moments through short passes, attacks from the right flank, and a fairly aggressive style of play.
Since they failed in their last match, we should expect drastic changes in the upcoming game. Cameron Archer and Adam Armstrong will probably come out instead of Paul Onuachu and Kamaldeen Sulemana.
Bet hereManchester still have a lot of unresolved problems. However, no matter how bad the hosts are this season, they must win against the worst team in the Premier League.
Southampton have practically lost their chances to fight for survival. In addition, United’s recent matches inspire confidence. Not losing away to Liverpool and knocking Arsenal out of the FA Cup are formidable tasks.
We think that the home side will win confidently and dominate throughout the match. Even in the crisis, they have better players, and our first pick would be Manchester United to win with a handicap (-1.5).
With 12 goals, Southampton have the lowest number scored in the Premier League. They have notable issues in their offence and struggle to convert their chances in the penalty area.
Manchester United have had problems defending their goal, but they shouldn’t have any against Southampton. The guests will likely cling to the draw, so an active performance from them is not expected.
The visitors have scored only one goal in their last six Premier League matches, and it’s unlikely that they’ll see the net at Old Trafford. Our second pick for the game is both teams not to score.
