Manchester United will be buoyed by their terrific performance in Monday’s 2-1 to Liverpool, but will know Southampton will pose a different type of test.
Erik ten Hag’s side are expected to have more of the ball and pressurise the final third with the Saints’ backline sitting much deeper. United are favourites to take the three points despite not winning on the road in the league since February’s 4-2 win over Leeds.
However, there will be a big difference on Saturday - they will have a world-class defensive midfielder in their ranks. Casemiro is set to make his debut at St Mary’s and Ten Hag has declared him fit for the contest.
