Southampton had a disaster of a start to their season, losing 3-0 to Burnley on their opening day fixture. However their next match at home against Liverpool was a massive improvement although they did lost the game by fine margins. Their last game against Brighton gave them a comfortable win with some impressive performances by James Ward Prowse and Nathan Redmond. In the defence, J Vestergaard looks solid. They will cause a few problems for United.

Manchester United had a fairy tale start to their season which has very quickly turned into another disappointment for the fans. Imagine losing to Crystal Palace at home (Palace were without a win at Old Trafford since 1989). Another bad result will surely hurt the morale of the players as well as the fans. Paul Pogba, Wan Bissaka and Daniel James have so far impressed in their games and will remain crucial for this game too.

Having missed their last 2 penalties, it would be interesting to see who Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will trust for the next penalty kick. Under-performing stars like Jesse Lingard should be benched with Juan Mata getting the nod instead. With injuries to Martial and Shaw, we will have to see how United cope without them.

Although Manchester United looks strong on paper for this one, United isn’t the same team of yesteryear. Expecting a narrow win for united to get things back on track. You can use the following tips to also play individual fantasy leagues and pots for the game on PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234”).
