With the current Premier League season in its closing stages, there's very little to play for at St Mary's in truth but we're still expecting a competitive game on the South Coast tonight.
Southampton look set to finish in the top half in an underwhelming but encouraging first season under Claude Puel whilst Manchester United can no longer make the top four and look fully focused on Europa League glory now.
Jose Mourinho's men are in good form away from Old Trafford at the moment with just one defeat in 10 games, winning eight.
Advert
In fact, United have won more points away from home this season in the Premier League (34 in 18 games) than they have at Old Trafford (31 in 18 games).
Southampton in contrast, have recorded just one win in their last five on home turf.
Given that the Saints have struggled badly against the top sides this season and have failed to win any of their nine games against the top six so far, we think there's value in backing the United win at 15/8 with BetVictor.
Of their last 10 away Premier League games, United have managed to score over 1.5 team goals (at least) in seven of them. The 17/10 on the Red Devils to score over 1.5 goals tonight is tremendous value.
Advert
Southampton have failed to score in their last three home league games but they've never gone four top-flight home games without a goal. Both teams to score tonight is worth considering at 8/11.
Recommended bets:
Man United WIN - 15/8
Over 1.5 Man Utd goals - 15/8
