Manchester United vs Southampton – Liverpool beat Manchester United 7-0 in their last Premier League game, so the Red Devils will be looking to do better after that loss.
Manchester United had 40% of the game’s control and made eight shots on goal, none of which was successful. Liverpool made 18 attempts on goal, with seven of those shots finding the back of the net.
For Liverpool, the goals came from Cody Gakpo (43, 50), Darwin Nez (47, 75), Mohamed Salah (66, 83), and Roberto Firmino (88). In five of the last six games that Manchester United played, there were at least three goals per game.

In these games, opposition teams tallied 11 while Manchester United scored 12. But it’s not certain that this tendency will continue.
Southampton are coming into this game after beating Leicester City 1-0 in the Premier League in their last game.
Southampton had 35% of the game’s control, and five of their 11 shots on goal were successful. Carlos Alcaraz (35′) was the lone Southampton player to score. Leicester City, on the other hand, made 11 attempts at goal, with none of them going in.
Over their last six games, Southampton’s forward players have failed to score, bagging a disappointing total of just four goals. In those games, the Saints have also seen their opponents score a total of eight goals.
When they played Manchester United on the road, Southampton lost their last six league games against them. They haven’t been moving very well at all.
Manchester United vs Southampton – Betting Analysis
Looking at their previous head-to-head matches dating back to July 13, 2020, we can see that Manchester United have won three of them and Southampton have lost none, while there have been three ties.
During this period, many goals were also scored, totaling 23, for an average of 3.83 per game. Anthony Martial (hip injury), Christian Eriksen (ankle injury), and Donny van de Beek (knee injury) will not be able to play for Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag in this game.

With David De Gea, Diogo Dalot, Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martnez, Luke Shaw, Casemiro, Fred, A. Matheus Dos, Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford, and Wouter Weghorst, we believe the Red Devils should play a 4-2-3-1 formation.
Gavin Bazunu, A. Maitland-Niles, Jan Bednarek, Armel Bella-Kotchap, Kyle Walker-Peters, Jamie Ward-Prowse, Roméo Lavia, Theo Walcott, Mohamed Elyounoussi, Kamal-Deen Sulemana, and Che Adams are set to start the game for the Saints in a 4-2-3-1 formation.
Although Southampton have the potential to strike against this Manchester United team, we believe that it won’t be enough to prevent a loss.
