Manchester United Prediction
Following the sacking of former manager Jose Mourinho and the appointment of former player, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Manchester United have registered back-to-back wins for the first time since early November after they thrashed Cardiff City 5-1 and then backed that up with a 3-1 home win over Huddersfield Town.
It could be argued that Solskjaer has had a relatively easy baptism of fire at the famous Manchester club, but they still have to make these count and grab the three points and this upcoming fixture with Bournemouth represents another chance for the United revival to continue here.
Manchester United have won three of their last four with an earlier 4-1 win over Fulham, while their overall home record still stands at a solid looking 5-3-1 17/12 which includes an unbeaten run of seven matches heading into this clash.
Midfielders Pogba (5 goals) and Lingard (4 goals) have provided valuable support for forwards Martial (8 goals), Lukaku (6 goals) and Rashford (4 goals).
Bournemouth Prediction
Bournemouth dropped down to 12th place on the Premier League ladder following a recent 5-0 thrashing by Tottenham at Wembley Stadium which became The Cherries’ third defeat in four league matches.
Recent defeats to Liverpool, Wolves and Tottenham have checked Bournemouth’s climb up the table, and Eddie Howe’s side will make their way to Old Trafford this Sunday looking to avoid a fifth straight away defeat on the trot.
Losses at Newcastle United, Manchester City, Wolves and Tottenham have been disappointing results for the south coast club who possess an away record of 3-0-6 11/19 and they’ll be facing an improved Manchester United in this encounter.
Bournemouth have kept just two clean sheets on the road so far this season and have conceded 2 goals or more in 6 of their 9 matches on their travels to date. in addition, the three matches they’ve played away at the Top 6 clubs have all ended in defeat, conceding 10 goals and scoring just 1 in reply.
Betting Tips Verdict
Manchester united can move within three points of Arsenal with a win here, and given Bournemouth’s recent poor run of results away from home, this looks a likely outcome here.
