Manchester United head into Monday’s clash with Bournemouth buoyed by a convincing 4-1 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers. Despite enduring plenty of criticism throughout the campaign, the Red Devils find themselves firmly in the mix for a Champions League spot as the season approaches its midpoint.
United’s record of seven wins, four draws and four defeats has them sitting sixth in the Premier League table — just one point shy of fourth-placed Crystal Palace and level on 25 points with Chelsea. With no European commitments to navigate, Erik ten Hag’s side have enjoyed a rare full week of preparation, and their attacking output has been encouraging, with 26 goals scored so far.
Bournemouth, meanwhile, began the season in eye-catching form but have struggled to maintain that momentum. The Cherries are winless in the Premier League since late October and have suffered four defeats in their last six outings. Their goalless draw with Chelsea last time out, however, hinted at a return to defensive discipline.
All eyes will also be on Antoine Semenyo — not just for his attacking threat, but also because the forward continues to be linked with a move to Old Trafford. He could be a key figure for Andoni Iraola’s men as they look to rediscover their early-season spark.
