Southampton vs Man Utd Predictions, Premier League 2024-25 – 14/09/2024
Southampton vs Man Utd predictions: Red Devils look to revive season at St. Mary’s
The Premier League action returns after the summer break with a clash between Manchester United and Southampton at the St. Mary’s Stadium on Saturday.
Southampton’s return to top flight football isn’t going as planned, with the side already losing three matches on the trot. Russell Martin’s side have struggled going forward and scored only one goal in three matches. The story is not very different from their opponents, the heavy-spending Manchester United who made a lot of business in the summer market. Erik Ten Hag will be keen on turning things around after two defeats in three matches.

Head to Head Record: Southampton vs Man Utd
Since facing each other for the first time in 1897, Manchester United and Southampton have faced each other 133 times. The Red Devils hold a significant advantage with 68 wins, while the Saints have won 28 times. The other 37 matches ended in a draw.
Southampton
The return to top flight has not been as triumphant for Southampton, who have lost all three matches they’ve played. Their only success came in the EFL Cup where they defeated second division Cardiff City. 5-3, but in the top division, goals have been very scarce. They only got one goal so far, in their last match against Brentford, where they lost 3-1. They have not done well against Man Utd in many years, but with the Red Devils slightly vulnerable right now, this could be a good chance for them to make an impact.
Manchester United
Manchester United were off to a shaky start against Fulham on the opening day. Although Joshua Zirkzee’s late goal got them three points, the alarm bells were right there and it only got amplified after two successive defeats to Brighton and Liverpool. A 3-0 defeat at the hands of their arch-rivals didn’t sit well with the fans, who are increasingly becoming impatient. However, the arrival of new signing Manuel Ugarte is likely to bring some confidence among fans.
