Bournemouth vs Man United prediction: Visitors could struggle with rotated team
Key Stats
- Man Utd have lost three and drawn one of their last four Premier League fixtures.
- Bournemouth have won two and drawn one of their last three meetings with Man Utd.
- Justin Kluivert has scored in each of his last two appearances against Manchester United.
- Man United have scored only one goal in their last four Premier League matches combined.
Correct score prediction: Bournemouth 2-0 Man United
Man Utd have failed to score in three of their last four league games and with Amorim set to field a heavily-rotated team at Bournemouth, an 11th loss-to-nil in the Premier League could be in the works.
Pre-game odds and win probability: United are clear underdogs
- HOME: 4/6 (1.67) – 60%
- DRAW: 3/1 (4.00) – 25%
- AWAY: 7/2 (4.50) – 22.2%
*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change
Bournemouth are unbeaten in three games and Sunday’s 4/6 favourites will fancy their chances of turning over a weakened Man Utd outfit on the south coast on Sunday.
Man United lost narrowly at home to Wolves (0-1) last time out and the toothless strugglers have just a 22.2% chance of turning their fortunes around at Bournemouth. Read more of our football predictions and Premier League analysis on our dedicated page.

Bournemouth preview: Three missing for hosts
Enes Unal, Ryan Christie and Luis Sinisterra are all confirmed injury absentees for Bournemouth. The Cherries are in eighth spot, though there is just a three-point gap to Crystal Palace in 12th and Bournemouth still have work to do to land a top-half finish.
Predicted lineup: Kepa (GK), Smith, Zabarnyi, Huijsen, Kerkez, Scott, Adams, Semenyo, Kluivert, Outtara, Evanilson

Man United preview: Expect United to rotate
A mix of injury issues and continental priorities should combine to force Amorim's hand on Sunday in terms of team selection, so expect a weakened Man Utd XI at Bournemouth. Harry Amass and Tyler Fredricson could start again, as could Christian Eriksen and Victor Lindelof.
Predicted lineup: Onana (GK), Yoro, Lindelof, Fredricson, Dalot, Ugarte, Eriksen, Amass, Mount, Garnacho, Hojlund

Player to watch – Antoine Semenyo
Antoine Semenyo has been an effective attacking force for Bournemouth this season and the 25-year-old is sitting on eight goals and four assists in the Premier League ahead of Sunday’s game.
Semenyo can be a nuisance
Semenyo racked up four attempts and scored one when Bournemouth cantered to victory at Old Trafford in December and the wide attacker – who has been linked with a move to Man Utd – could trouble the Red Devils’ backline in a similar way in Sunday’s rematch.
