Manchester United faced their biggest shock of this Premier League season as they lost at home to bottom placed Sheffield United who had earned only five points before this match. They face Arsenal at the Emirates on Saturday who have been in great form being unbeaten in their last 6 league games and thus we expect an intense match.
Some of betting predictions for Manchester United vs Southampton match are:
Manchester United vs Southampton Betting Tips
Safe Bets
One of the safest bets of the match to will be to bet on the total goals scored to be less than 3.5 at odds of 1.53 (William hill). Manchester United’s attack hasn’t been on target in the recent matches and has scored only 4 goals in their last 5 PL games. On the other hand, Southampton have only scored 3 goals in their last 7 PL games. Thus we expect this to be a low scoring match.
Another good bet would be to bet on both teams to not score at odds of 2.05 (WilliamHill). As said earlier we expect this to be a low scoring match and Southampton will find it tough to score against the Manchester United defence who have been pretty impressive lately.
Another safe bet would be to bet on the total cards to be less than 3.5 at odds of 1.83 (betway). Both teams have a few players on 4 yellow cards and 1 more card will see them suspended for a few games. Thus both teams will make sure they do not make any silly tackles and get booked and thus we expect lesser cards to be given out in this match.
Quick Rich
The focus on this match will be on both the defensive lines. It will be tough to get through them. Also both the teams have a playing style which earns them a lot of corners every match. Thus betting on the combination of there to be under 2.5 goals and over 9.5 corners in the match at odds of 3.75 (betway) can give you high returns at minimal risk.
Betting on the result is always a good way to earn big. We expect the scoreline to end as a 1-0 win in favour of Manchester United at odds of 8.00 (betway).
Win/Lose/Draw
Due to their draw against Arsenal and loss against Sheffield, Manchester United now see themselves 3 points behind league leaders Manchester City who also have a game in hand. United now have to win against Southampton anyhow to keep the pressure on the leaders Southampton’s poor form of 1 win their last 8 PL games can be a boost for United and thus we expect them to win the match at odds of 1.53 (betway).
Bet During the Match
If Manchester United concede first in the match then they will make many attacking substitutes and will surely get in a goal as they cannot afford to lose any more points. Thus betting on any team to lead at halftime and not win at current odds of 5.75 can be a good bet to make during the match. (betway)
Manchester United overall form: DWWLD
Southampton overall form: LWWLL
