Last season Southampton managed to take a worthy final place in the middle of the table, while playing badly on the defensive. After seven rounds of the current championship, the saints have not a single victory and only four draws, which brought four points and 17th place in the standings. The team’s weakest link is the attack line, which hit the opponents’ goal only five times. After a draw with Manchester City (0:0), the Red-Whites suffered a fiasco in a duel with Wolverhampton (0:1) and Chelsea (1:3). Stevens, Ward-Prowse and Adams will not be able to play today.
After two rounds of the current season of the Champions League, Manchester United managed to get a victory over Villarreal (2:1) and unexpectedly lost to Young Boys (1:2). These results brought three points and a little moral satisfaction. The Mancunia took revenge on Villarreal for the defeat in the Europa League final this year. In seven matches of the current Premier League championship, Manchester United have recorded four successful matches and 14 tournament points, which corresponds to the fourth position, but the density of teams at the top of the Premier League may change today. After an unexpected fiasco at Aston Villa (0:1), United shared the tournament points with Everton (1:1) at home. It is impossible not to note the third indicator in the attack line, which hit the opponents’ goal 14 times, of which Fernendes scored six goals. Varane, Diallo, Maguire and Rashford will not be able to play today. More today’s match predictions can be obtained from the link provided.
