Manchester United vs Southampton Betting Tips
Safe Bets
Both teams have scored in their last six games and have a stronger attack and an unstable defense. Therefore betting on both teams to score at odds of 1.77 (betway) is one of the safest bets of the match.
Ronaldo has been the top scorer for United this season and only played 20 mins in the last match. With him also being the first choice penalty taker, betting on him to score against a weak Southampton defense at odds of 2.00 (betway) is one of the best bets of the match.
Southampton and Manchester United have earned the fifth and sixth most corners in the league respectively at an average of almost six per match. Hence betting on more than 10 corners being conceded in the match at odds of 1.90 (bet365) is another safe bet.
Quick Rich
Che Adams is one of the key strikers for Southampton and has scored two goals in his last three starts. Therefore betting on him to take over 3 shots in the game at odds of 3.25 (betway) gives high returns at minimal risk.
We expect an attacking match and hence betting on a combination of more than 2.5 goals being scored and 10 corners being conceded at odds of 3.29 (bet365) is a good bet.

Bet During the Match
