Southampton vs Manchester United Match Analysis and Prediction

Manchester United will be looking to make back to back wins at the start of their 2021-22 premier League Campaign when they lock horns with Southampton at St Mary’s Stadium on Sunday with kick-off at 16:00.

Southampton opened their 10th straight season in the English top tier with a disappointing 3-1 defeat to Rafa Benitez’s Everton last weekend at Goodison Park. This is worrying and rises more concerns from the club’s supporters as the Saints have been struggling in their recent seasons as they finished 17th, 16th and 15th in three of their last four campaigns and they have lost a couple of extremely important players in the summer transfer. Danny Ings and Jannik Vestergaard two vital players for the club have lest for Aston Villa and Leicester City respectively.

However, the money has been spent on the likes of Adam Armstrong, who scored the consolation goal in the season opener, and Romain Perraud.
