Manchester United V Bournemouth: Team News, Predicted XI And Betting Odds

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed that Axel Tuanzebe will miss the rest of the season. It is still not known what injury the centre-back has picked up but he is now only expected to return in September.

Phil Jones, meanwhile, is also unlikely to feature again this campaign, with the 28-year-old still a few weeks away from full match fitness after sustaining a knock before the restart.

Manchester United’s Predicted XI To Face Bournemouth:


De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw, Matic, Fernandes, Pogba, Greenwood, Martial, Rashford

Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe will have to try and pick his players off the floor after a shock 4-1 home defeat to Newcastle last time out. The Cherries are in deep trouble and go into the match at Old Trafford tomorrow without Callum Wilson.

The forward will be suspended after picking up his tenth yellow card of the season. Andrew Surman could return from a knock, although he does face a late fitness test, and Simon Francis and Charlie Daniels (both knee) remain out of contention.

Bournemouth’s Predicted XI:

Ramsdale, Stacey, Steve Cook, Ake, Rico, Harry Wilson, Billing, Brooks, Lerma, Groeneveld, King

The bookies have made United heavy favourites for this game with Sky Bet pricing them at 1/5 odds-on for the win. A draw is 7/1 with 888 Sport while a Bournemouth victory is 20/1 at Betfair.

Predicted Score – 5-0 to United
