Manchester United vs Southampton Preview & Prediction

Manchester United will look to return to the winner’s circle this weekend when their top-four hopes took a halt following a lacklustre 1-1 draw against Burnley. They would’ve taken the three points if it wasn’t for a Harry Maguire brain fade, leading to a disallowed Raphael Varane goal.

Nevertheless, they will have the upper hand when they clash against the Saints, having remained undefeated in the previous 12 meetings, including six wins.

The spotlight has somewhat been on Cristiano Ronaldo, as he suffers his worst goal drought in club football throughout his career. Unsurprisingly, the run only stretches five matches.

Meanwhile, Southampton came from behind twice against Tottenham in London last time out. They stamped their authority during the match and thoroughly deserved the three points to move into the top half of the table.

They have been superb since Christmas, only losing one match in their last nine in all competitions. Ralph Hasenhuttl’s outfit has taken points off Spurs and Manchester City in their last two matches, coining the term giant killers as of late.

Verdict:

Although the previous meeting between these sides ended in a draw, I believe Manchester United’s home ground advantage will prove too much for Southampton on Saturday.

Five of the last seven meetings has hit the over. (Best Over 2.5 Goals Odds: $1.72 with bet365).
