Bournemouth vs Man Utd LIVE: Premier League latest score and confirmed lineups | Football
Manchester United are looking to tighten their grip on third place when they take on Bournemouth in tonight’s Premier League action.
After that setback against Newcastle United, Michael Carrick’s side responded emphatically at home to Aston Villa last weekend with Bruno Fernandes again at the heart of things.
With Chelsea and Liverpool also dropping points last weekend, United can move six points clear of the chasing pack tonight – and move within four of second place Manchester City who are preoccupied with the Carabao Cup this weekend.
The reverse fixture between these two was a chaotic thriller at Old Trafford, finishing 4-4 in November. But be warned, three of Bournemouth last four games have finished goalless.
Metro’s LIVE matchday blog will bring you all the build-up, confirmed team news and starting XIs, goal updates and minute-by-minute coverage.

Score prediction
Alan Shearer gave Metro his Premier League predictions earlier today – here’s his verdict for Bournemouth vs Manchester United…
This is a really good game and a tough one to predict. Man United could keep their run going after they bounced back really well from their defeat at Newcastle.
I guess because of the situation that Michael Carrick has put Man United in, then they should go there with full belief and confidence. Away from home, they were really poor at Newcastle, but we’ll have to wait and see whether that’s something they need to look at. Michael Carrick has put them in a brilliant position for Champions League football, and I don’t expect them to get beaten against Bournemouth. I’m going to say a draw.
Prediction – Draw
Form guide
Manchester United head into this game off the back of a 3-1 win at home to Aston Villa last Sunday.
Michael Carrick’s side have won four, drawn one and lost one of their last six Premier League games.
Bournemouth, meanwhile, have drawn four Premier League games in a row and their most recent result was a goalless stalemate away to Burnley last Saturday.
Team news shortly…
Team news should land at 6.45pm but we know Manchester United will be without Lisandro Martinez, Patrick Dorgu and Matthijs de Ligt are out due to injury.
Bournemouth will be without Tyler Adams, Julio Soler, Lewis Cook and Justin Kluivert.
