Manchester United vs Bournemouth Prediction: Waiting for a Shutout

Prediction for the EPL Manchester United vs Bournemouth match, which will take place on January 3rd. In the last four matches against the Cherries, United has failed to seal a shutout. Now Erik ten Hag's team is good in defense, and there is a chance that the hosts will end the streak. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Manchester United is good after the break. Erik ten Hag's team played three games and kept their opponents from scoring. First, MU sent two goals to Burnley to reach the EFL Cup quarterfinals. Then, they thrashed Nottingham Forest 3:0 and, in a tough away game, Wolverhampton 1:0. Due to these results, Manchester United is already in fourth place in the EPL standings (32 points).

The Cherries have yet to score in three games since the season resumed. The club lost by a narrow margin to Newcastle (0:1) and dropped out of the EFL Cup. In the Premier League, Bournemouth lost on the road to Chelsea and at home to Crystal Palace with the same score of 0:2. Bournemouth is 15th in the standings with 16 points.

Bournemouth has shot against United in the last four meetings, but the Red Devils have been really good defensively under ten Hag. Currently, the club has conceded 20 goals in 16 meetings. They missed precisely half of those goals in two games - against Brentford and Man City. Thus, we should expect another shutout for David De Gea. United creates a lot of chances offensively, but they need more realization. With all due respect to Bournemouth, the upcoming match should be a good opportunity for the hosts to improve their stats.
