The Saints have struggled in their recent games, after a
blistering start to the season.
United are looking to make it 5 wins on the bounce and move
into 3rd place, but their away form has been far from convincing, with just 1
win in 6 this season, their last away game, against Arsenal.
Southampton have only conceded 4 goals in 7 home games,
scoring 17, but Pelle has been struggling of late, having not scored since the
empthatic 8-0 thrashing of Sunderland, mid-October. I really can't see United
losing this game, despite a rocky away form, but an outright win would be
tough, even though Southampton have a few key names missing. Wayne Rooney has
scored 5 goals in 5 starts against Southampton in the League, and if he starts
here looks a good bet for ANYTIME GOAL SCORER @2/1 BET365
