Team News

Man Utd
Southampton
  • Luke Shaw, Victor Lindelof, Jonny Evans and Mason Mount remain ruled out through injury.
  • Diogo Dalot will sit this one out following his red card at the weekend, while Marcus Rashford continues to miss out through illness.
  • Jack Stephens and Ross Stewart remain sidelined for Southampton, while Flynn Downes will be assessed once again, having missed the last three games through injury.

Prediction

  • After the exciting 2-2 draw with Liverpool at Anfield, Manchester United progressed past Arsenal in the FA Cup third round on Sunday evening, with Ruben Amorim's side prevailing in a penalty shootout at the Emirates.
  • Southampton, meanwhile, won their first match of any kind since early November, putting three past Swansea City to secure their path to the fourth round.
  • The Saints have lost each of their three Premier League matches under new boss Ivan Juric, though, and won't be expected to pick up a result here.

  • Apologies for the error that prevented users from commenting on match centres this week!

  • MU terrible yet again.Ruben makes ETH look great.

  • MU easy win.

  • 3-1

  • @koziol.mutant ea$y

  • Phew! My bet!

  • @RichieRochdale I know the feeling -)

  • I'm just baffled at the usual suspects who keep ranting about ''easy win''. Forget about Man U, they're going to follow Southampton to the Championship anyway.

  • @PunterBloke is baffled

  • @sambasoccer still my best bet. btts,lol

  • Appalling!!!! Take them all off second half and just play Bayindir

  • All the good, recent work will---, blah, blah, blah.

  • @RichieRochdale Well, at least Antony's on !?!

  • Bayindir made Onana play top-class, but South were due to score.

  • 0-0

  • Garnacho +140 / Bruno F. +155 / Hojlund +105 TSA

  • MAN UTD Onana, de Ligt, Yoro, Martinez, Mazraoui, Ugarte, Mainoo, Garnacho, Diallo, Fernandes, Hojlund.

  • @Marbella SUBS Bayindir, Maguire, Zirkzee, Malacia, Eriksen, Casemiro, Antony, Collyer, Kukonki.

  • SOTON Ramsdale, Harwood-Bellis, Bednarek, Sugawara, Bree, Ugochukwu, Aribo, Walker-Peters, Dibling, Onuachu, Sulemana.

  • @Marbella SUBS McCarthy, Manning, Downes, Smallbone, Adam Armstrong, Lallana, Wood, Archer, Onuachu.

  • United Win

  • The 'thumbs up' sign and the 'reply' and 'report' buttons do not work.

  • @Marbella Thanks they are working now.

  • The saints have conceded 13 times in their last 5 EPL matches.

  • Southampton have not scored more than 1 goal for 12 consecutive away league games

  • All of the good, recent work will come to nothing if United don't take Southampton seriously and carry on with their Loser Mentality. Not sure why they couldn't make this kind of mental effort when Ten Hag was the Manage (I suspect they don't like disciplinarians) but let's give them a chance to start putting things right, eh? Getting rid of Rashford (and, hopefully, Garnacho) is a good place to start. United Win/BTTS.

  • @RichieRochdale Garnacho has actually been playing better recently and he understands well with Diallo. Rashford, Antony of course out.

  • @koziol.mutant Garnacho is a good Player but he's a bad apple like his mentor, Rashford.
