Southampton vs Manchester United 27.08.2022

Southampton have had a bit of a rocky start to the season, but they seem to have recovered well from their opening-day loss to Tottenham with their come-from-behind performances at Leeds (2-2) and Leicester (1-2). The Saints’ attack has been very strong this season, but their defence has been shaky at best. They are currently sitting 11th for this matchday with 4 points to show for just 3 matches, and are looking for another win to keep their momentum going.

On the flip side, Manchester United’s start to the Premier League (PL) season has been totally appalling, and after two unexpected losses, they are at the bottom of the standings for the first time since the league’s inception. The Theatre of dreams now sounds like a minefield due to a lacklustre transfer window, Cristiano Ronaldo’s transfer saga and anti-owner rallies. Nonetheless, all is not lost yet, provided The Red Devils can look past their struggles both at a club and individual levels to kickstart their PL campaign!

With both sides having problems tidying up their defences, which has seen their first two PL matches produce over 2.5 goals, we anticipate an exciting game which could feature more than 2 total match goals.
