A 2-0 win over Brighton in the Premier League followed by a 1-0 away win over Fulham in the Carabao Cup has managed to lift the mood at Southampton.
After starting the season with two straight defeats, Ralph Hasenhuttl’s side seem to have recovered from that false start.
They now take on a Manchester Unites side which are really hard to read at this moment.
Ole Gunnar Solskjear’s men started the campaign with a 4-0 win over Chelsea but since then they only drew 1-1 with Wolves and lost 2-1 to Crystal Palace at Old Trafford.
Even though Saints don’t have a great record against United, their price in the outright market has plummeted to 3/1.
Saints last beat Manchester United in 2016 and the last time they did that at home was all the way back in 2003.
What’s more, Solskjear’s side have won this fixture four times in the last seven meetings.
Despite this, the recommendation is to back the hosts. United have played some woeful football in the last two weeks and a resurgent Southampton side could threaten a surprise.
Saints to win and both teams to score is currently priced at 6/1. With those sort of numbers on the table, this has to be the recommended bet.
Recommendation
Southampton to win and both teams to score – 6/1 bet365*
