Manchester United have made steady progress under Ruben Amorim, despite having now crashed out of the Carabao Cup this week against Tottenham Hotspur.

The Red Devils found themselves 3-0 down before staging a comeback against Spurs in north London, with Joshua Zirkzee and Amad reducing the hosts' lead to just a goal. But Heung-min Son's corner found its way straight into the net after a blunder from Altay Bayindir, despite Jonny Evans' late header.

Before that, spirits were high after a 2-1 win over Manchester City in the derby at the Etihad Stadium, and Bournemouth are the next side to arrive at the Theatre of Dreams this weekend.

The Cherries are having quite the season having already beaten Arsenal, Manchester City and Tottenham, and will be looking for another scalp. They did in fact beat Manchester United at Old Trafford last term so can they repeat the feat once again?

Watch Man United vs Bournemouth in the UK

Supporters of either side will not be able to watch the game live on TV in the UK, with Sky Sports not selecting the contest for broadcast coverage.

That means you will have to wait a little later on Sunday for your Amorim-sized football fix, with highlights available on Sky Sports YouTube channel a few hours after the full-time whistle.

Alternatively, Match of the Day 2 will also show the best bits from Sunday's game on BBC Two with Mark Chapman likely to host the round-up.
