Manchester United have travelled to the St. Mary’s Stadium tonight to face the Saints of Southampton in the Premier League. The Red Devils have a great away record this season and will be looking to extend it with a win tonight. It was expected of Solskjaer to field a similar lineup that played against Basaksehir and Ole hasn’t disappointed as Donny Van de Beek makes his Premier League debut.

The Dutchman has waited a lot for his opportunity and the time has finally come. The midfield consists of Matic, Bruno, Fred and Van de Beek with a midfield diamond likely to be in place. The front two will be Rashford and Greenwood as both the United academy graduates will look to make it count in the Premier League.
The defence is unchanged from the Basaksehir game despite concerns about Lindelof and Wan-Bissaka. Alex Telles again starts for Manchester United and will look to make the most of his chances with the injury to Luke Shaw. Looking at the lineup, Manchester United will be expected to win the game but will need to score goals, which has been a problem sometimes.
Unchanged for the visit of #MUFC! 😇

Solskjaer has done his part by setting up Manchester United very well, now it is up to the players to perform on the pitch.
