Man Utd vs Southampton Odds
How both teams go into Man Utd vs Southampton
Man Utd were given a much-needed confidence boost with their 2-2 draw against leaders Liverpool last time out. The Red Devils took the lead shortly after half-time, before showing great character to salvage a 2-2 draw after going 2-1 behind. That said, United are still five games without a win across all competitions and remain 13th in the table, just seven points clear of the relegation zone.
Southampton, meanwhile, are in dire straights. The Saints are bottom with just six points and one win from 20 games, scoring 12 goals and conceding 44. They’re on track to become the Premier League’s worst-ever team unless things improve soon, with their 5-0 thrashing at home to Brentford doing them absolutely no favours.
Man Utd team news
Luke Shaw, Viktor Lindelof and Mason Mount are all ruled out for this match, while Marcus Rashford could feature after an illness.
Southampton team news
Jack Stephens and Ross Stewart are definitely out here, while Flynn Downes is rated at 50/50.
