Southampton vs Man United

Lyrics

"Manchester United will be looking to build on their impressive victory over Liverpool when they continue their Premier League campaign away to Southampton on Saturday afternoon.

The Red Devils recorded a 2-1 win over their bitter rivals on Monday to move from 19th to 14th in the table, while Southampton have collected four points from their two matches against Leeds United and Leicester City to occupy 11th position, and they were also victorious in the League Cup on Tuesday night.

The Saints have made an impressive start to the 2022-23 campaign, opening with a 2-2 draw against Leeds United at St Mary's before recording a 2-1 win over Leicester City last time out.
View moreThe Saints have not actually beaten Man United in the Premier League since January 2016, while their last home league success over the Red Devils was back in 2003, but both fixtures between the two sides last term finished in 1-1 draws.

Man United, meanwhile, will enter this weekend's contest off the back of a morale-boosting 2-1 victory over Liverpool, with Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford on the scoresheet at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils lost their opening two league games of the season against Brighton & Hove Albion and Brentford, but the feel-good factor is back ahead of this match due to the win over the Reds, which saw the 20-time English champions put in their best performance for some time.
Valentino Livramento remains a long-term absentee, but the Saints are otherwise in excellent shape. The Red Devils will again be missing Facundo Pellistri through injury, while Brandon Williams and Victor Lindelof remain doubts; Mason Greenwood is also still absent due to his club suspension.

United are the favourites to win at 1.80 odds."
