Manchester United are looking to get back to winning ways in the Premier League on their trip to Bournemouth. It would go down as our first victory in the league since March 9.

Something needs to change if we are going to mount one last push for the Champions League spots. Tottenham dropped points against Newcastle earlier today, so this is our chance to make some ground on our top-four rivals.

United go into the game against Bournemouth having won just one of our last six league matches. Furthermore, we have not won away from home since beating Luton Town 2-1 in February. That same Luton side were responsible for ending Bournemouth’s unbeaten run last weekend.

Erik ten Hag has an array of injuries to deal with going into this game. The Reds will be without Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans, as well as Scott McTominay.

Manchester United XI vs Bournemouth

Andre Onana will start between the posts.

Diogo Dalot and Aaron Wan-Bissaka keep their places in the team on either side of defence, while the centre-back pairing consists of Harry Maguire and Willy Kambwala.

The midfield consists of Casemiro, Kobbie Mainoo and Bruno Fernandes.

Marcus Rashford returns to the attacking trio with Alejandro Garnacho and Rasmus Hojlund.

Manchester United XI vs Bournemouth: Onana; Wan-Bissaka, Maguire, Kambwala, Dalot; Casemiro, Mainoo, Fernandes; Garnacho, Hojlund, Rashford.

Antony was not spotted with the team arriving at the ground, so the Manchester Evening News doesn’t believe he travelled to the match.
