Now looking at the first half of the season, back in the month of July, Manchester United defeated Southampton by a whopping scoreline of 3-0. Over the course of their last 4 matches, none of them crossed two goals in terms of goal scoring. Enabling a “both teams to score” had only worked in two out of the last five matches for either team.

Manchester United 

The ‘Red Devils’ are keen on shifting from their last year’s winless performance where they lost to Bournemouth, Wolverhampton and Newcastle (0-3),(0-2) and (0-2) respectively with Amourin as their manager. However, the start of the year was promising for the team where they managed to secure a draw against Liverpool with a score of (2-2).

Having that match in mind, it is easy to see the potential and value that the team brings to the table, after all the team is currently in 13th place and is only 7 points off from the relegation zone. The shift of the calendar year coupled with their defense strategy to onbeat Arsenal in a penalty shootout must provide them with the motivation to change their current losing streak where they haven’t one any out of the last 4 games.

Southampton

It seems that the team coached by Ivan Juric, Brentford, suffer from constant humiliation on the pitch as they have lost four of their matches. Not only was their most last a defeat, but other three games ended up in a devastating loss of 5-0. The last loss was the 5th one in the row in their premier league and overall this has been their tenth consecutive match without a win. On the flip side, there is some light at the end of the tunnel as they managed to secure draws in 2 matches.

The performance of Ivan’s troop when it comes to scoring is worrying as they have only managed to score one goal in the last 6 games. Their standing is also disappointing, as they remain at the bottom of the table in the Premier League and are 10 points away from the 17th place. Away form is also an area of concern for them as they lost 13 games out of the Last 17 that were played in the Premier League. The game between Swansea and Southampton was held on the weekend where the latter came out on top after beating them in the FA Cup with a score line of 3-0.
