The kick at 8:00pm GMT offers the Reds a chance to continue to start 2025, with an honourable draw at Anfield opposite Liverpool and a memorable penalty chimney win in the FA Cup Emirates opposite Arsenal.
They are the cases of the last game that provided the first transparent debate for Amorim, with the fullback Diogo Dalot that is sent 61 minutes. Therefore, it is suspended for our game with Southampton.
Before nightfall, under the lights of Old Trafford, we played our popular United Predictions alongside Mutv experts Wes Brown and Ben Thornley. He is involved in guessing who will reposition Diogo and whether Ruben can simply give a starting spot to those who inspired the Emirates Stadium dugout, such as Toby Collyer, Leny Yoro and Tyrell Malacia.
Predict Ruben’s starting XI, the scoreline, first goalscorer and your Man of the Match, and you’ll have the chance to win great prizes if you do.
So, who replaces Dalot? Well, two-time UEFA Champions League winner Wes Brown is a more attacking lineup after the Portugal international’s suspension.
Check out his full predictions below before making your own…
WES BROWN’S PREDICTIONS
Wes predicts that Amad will start as a winger in Dalot’s position. The in-form Ivorian recently signed a new long-term contract with United and has already been in good form for several months.
In our most recent matches, Amad basically started as one of two attackers betting on the attacker, but in Amorim’s first teams as head coach after his arrival in November, Amad was used in the wing position.
Whether it’s a decision of necessity or a desire to take the game to the visiting Saints on Thursday evening, Wes thinks Amad will return to that deeper role.
Brown does not expect additional adjustments in the background that fought so decidedly in northern London last Sunday, and the same goes for the initial midfield and the front line.
BEN THORNLEY’S PREDICTIONS
Ben Thornley expects dominant midfield functionality from Manuel Ugarte, whose confidence and influence have also been higher in the six-plus weeks. The Uruguayan played a central role in the Games in Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal. Ben thinks he will be the opposite fit guy for Southampton.
Ben opted for the same score, a confident 3-0 prediction, and the first scorer (Rasmus Hojlund) as Wes Brown, but differs in his variety of starters. The Academy graduate believes Leny Yoro will reach Harry Maguire, who is a colossus in a win at Arsenal and was launched after 104 minutes.
“We simply have some doubts about the players who were tired in the last game,” said Ruben Amorim, questioned the news of the team.
“We cannot lose players for many games and our players are in a position to cope with the demands of the game. There is no replacement in available players. »
At the back, Ben supports Tyrell Malacia to update Diogo Dalot, Amad took one of the roles of Rasmus Hojlund and Alejandro Garnacho who fell on the bench.
What a Bruno to see
“We have a game,” Bruno Fernandes told external stations this week.
“Southampton are fighting for their lives, they want to stay in the Premier League and they want trouble. But we want to replace that and look at ourselves and say we want trouble, too. We have to think that we want problems more than they do. , and that has to be our purpose for every game: the opponent wishes them very much, but we wish them more.
“Obviously, it helps to have time to exercise and prepare a little more for the games, it is important. But I think that in the [last] two games, it was more hobbies, preferences and everything, how much you need to win the game. They are all Really aware of what they expect from us in terms of positioning and tactics, I think we are reaching the point that you need in terms of effort, career, hobby and lack of winning games. Aspects, but we will.
