Bournemouth vs Manchester United Preview and Team News

Bournemouth Team News

Bournemouth currently sit 10th in the table and will be aiming to get closer to a Conference League spot. Interestingly, they’ve drawn four games in a row, the latest of which was a goalless stalemate against Burnley in the Premier League

Three of those four draws have ended 0-0, highlighting a run of solid defensive performances and important clean sheets.

However, their attacking output needs to improve. Against the Clarets, they took 22 shots but failed to find the back of the net. 

The Cherries have four key players ruled out with injuries: Matai Akinmboni, Julio Soler, Justin Kluivert, and Lewis Cook.

Bournemouth predicted lineup vs Manchester United (4-2-3-1): Petrovic; Truffert, Senesi, Hill, Smith; Scott, Christie; Rayan, Kroupi, Tavernier; Evanilson.

Manchester United Team News

Manchester United are third in the table, having enjoyed a significant upturn in form under caretaker manager Michael Carrick. 

The former midfielder has reverted to a 4-2-3-1 formation, releasing Bruno Fernandes from his defensive duties – a change that has clearly benefitted the Portuguese playmaker. He even bagged two assists and posted a 100% dribbling success rate in their recent 3-1 win over Aston Villa

Under Carrick, Man United have lost just one game and have been unbeaten in four of their last five. In terms of availability, the manager has relatively few concerns, with only defenders Matthijs de Ligt, Patrick Dorgu, and Lisandro Martinez sidelined.

Manchester United predicted lineup vs Bournemouth (4-2-3-1): Lammens; Shaw, Yoro, Maguire, Dalot; Casemiro, Mainoo; Cunha, Fernandes, Diallo; Mbeumo.

Bournemouth vs Manchester United Prediction

  • Pick: Manchester United to win or draw
  • Odds: -286 (20Bet)
  • Correct score prediction: Bournemouth 1-3 Manchester United

We expect United to either win or draw. They have been in excellent form lately, looking well on track to secure a Champions League berth for next season. 

Historically, Man Utd have held an advantage over the Cherries, avoiding defeat in 14 of their last 18 meetings. The venue hasn’t made much difference either, as the Red Devils have gone unbeaten in six of their last eight matches at Vitality Stadium.

Bournemouth vs Manchester United Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: First goal – Manchester United
  • Odds: -132 (20Bet)

United should open the scoring, given that they have the likes of Fernandes, Bryan Mbeumo, and Matheus Cunha in their ranks, who have a combined 44 goal contributions in the league this season. 

What’s more, the threat of Benjamin Sesko also lurks, as he’s consistently shown what damage he can do coming off the bench. The Slovenian has scored in five of his last seven league appearances, four of those coming as a substitute. Sesko has recorded a total of 10 league goal contributions this season. 

United have also opened the scoring in two of their last four games.
