  • Man United could move into the Champions League spots with a win on Monday
  • Bournemouth have dropped to 13th in the standings after failing to win in their last five

Man United will once again play in the Monday evening slot in the Premier League this week, as they host Bournemouth. You can find the odds and our picks here.

There have been a couple of false dawns for the Red Devils this term, but the team remain in a solid spot for a potential push for a Champions League spot after losing just once in their last seven.

Bournemouth have gone the opposite way in the standings, failing to win in each of their last five. However, they did end a two-game losing run last Saturday following a 0-0 draw against Chelsea.

United Set Sights on Top Four

Man United will once again play on a Monday night this week, losing against Everton a few weeks ago, before easily beating Wolves last week.

United looked assured in the second half of their most recent clash, with Bruno Fernandes netting twice, and Mason Mount getting a deserved goal following an excellent performance. However, this will be a bigger challenge for the Red Devils.

Ruben Amorim’s side have largely been inconsistent throughout the campaign, evident over their last five after winning twice, drawing twice, and losing once. Notably, this will be the final time that Amorim can call on Mbeumo and Diallo before the stars depart for AFCON on Tuesday.

Possible Lineup
(3-4-2-1) Lammens (GK); Yoro, Martinez, Shaw; Diallo, Fernandes, Casemiro, Dalot; Mount, Mbeumo; Cunha

Cherries in Free Fall

It has been a strange period for Andoni Iraola’s Bournemouth, as their form has dipped sharply in the Premier League.

The Cherries have failed to win in their last five, leaving them sitting 13th in the standings. But, positives could have been taken from last weekend’s goalless draw against Chelsea.

Bournemouth’s away form will be a major issue ahead of this clash. They have won just one of their seven on the road, conceding a staggering average of 2.71 goals per game. But, their eye-catching record against the Red Devils could be a prominent betting angle when making picks this week.

Possible Lineup
(4-1-4-1) Petrovic (GK); Smith, Diakite, Senesi, Truffert; Scott; Jimenez, Tavernier, Kluivert, Semenyo; Evanilson

Man United vs. Bournemouth Picks

Bournemouth have a strong recent away record against Man United, winning 3-0 on two of their last three trips.

However, something seems amiss with the Cherries at this stage of the season, and United’s balance looked much better with Mount starting in the ten role last Monday.

Therefore, we could foresee United’s Champions League challenge building momentum at Old Trafford on Monday.
