Manchester United to Win<\/strong><\/td>\n6\/5 @ Matchbook<\/a>
(45.5%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nWe are backing United because they have scored 54 goals this season (10 more than Bournemouth), created more big chances (60 vs 45), and won seven of the last 14 H2Hs. Their attacking depth, highlighted by Bruno Fernandes’ league-best 16 assists, should make the difference\u2014even away from home.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Both Teams to Score: No<\/strong><\/td>\n7\/4 @ BetMGM<\/a>
(36.4%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nThere could be value here as United have kept five clean sheets and Bournemouth, despite creating chances, have had 44 big chances missed. Recent meetings have gone either way, but with United’s pass accuracy and defensive improvement, a shutout is possible if they control play.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n
