Southampton vs Manchester Utd Prediction & Betting tips
Southampton and Manchester United have the honor to open the fourth round of the Premier League on Saturday afternoon. Manchester United lost in Crystal Palace’s own home in the previous round and therefore has to put things right this weekend if it’s a guest at St. Mary’s Stadium.
Southampton:
Just like in the past seasons, Southampton is also one of the relegation candidates in the Premier League this season. In contrast to the competition, Southampton coach Ralph Hasenhüttl wants to play football with his team and that can go two ways: The Saints can make it difficult for any opponent because they want to play football or they can get stuck in the knife because of their playing ability. That will become clear in the coming games and the question is whether Hasenhüttl, should the results be disappointing for Southampton, a coach who wants to change his way of playing.
That the footballing ability of Southampton can cause problems was also apparent in the first round. The Saints then lost 3-0 to Burnley and that should of course not happen to Southampton. A week later, Southampton lost 1-2 to Liverpool in-house and last weekend The Saints collected their first points of the season. A visit to Brighton & Hove Albion was won by Southampton with a 0-2 score, although Brighton ended up with ten men after half an hour of playing football. On Tuesday-evening, Southampton booked the second official win of the season by winning 0-1 in the Carabao Cup against Fulham. Hasenhüttl chose to send a mix of basic and substitute players into the field at Craven Cottage, Pierre Højbjerg, Jan Bednarek and Nathan Redmond were simply in the base in London. The latter was injured and therefore misses this weekend’s game.
Manchester United:
The Premier League is only three games on the road and Manchester United is already five points behind Liverpool, three Manchester City and two Arsenal. It is that Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur also lost points twice, so that the pressure is not yet very great at the Manchester United of Ole Gunnar Solskjær. While Chelsea and Tottenham lost points against top clubs (respectively against Manchester United itself and Manchester City), Manchester United dropped points against Wolverhampton and Crystal Palace.
A visit to Wolverhampton Manchester United played a draw two or two weeks ago with 1-1 and last weekend The Red Devils went down at home against Crystal Palace: 1-2. The English record champion fell behind Crystal Palace in the first half, made the equalizer just before the end, but The Red Devils had to cash Patrick van Aanholt’s 1-2 in the extra time. Manchester United was a lot better than Crystal Palace, but struggled to cash in on the odds. The Red Devils have now won only one of the last nine games, scored only eight goals in those nine games and had to collect no fewer than sixteen.
