Match preview

Now unbeaten in their last 17 matches in all competitions, United will be looking
to further boost their chances of claiming a top-four finish when they welcome
Southampton to Old Trafford on Monday night. Fifth could yet be enough to secure
Champions League football next season depending on the outcome of Manchester City's
appeal over a two-year suspension, while the Red Devils could also qualify for next
season's premier European competition by winning the Europa League. There is no
question that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side will have their eyes on a top-four
finish, though, and they are currently fifth in the table, just a point off fourth-
placed Leicester City. Chelsea are just two points clear in third, although the
Blues will have the chance to stretch their advantage when they travel to seventh-
placed Sheffield United on Saturday night. United were held by Tottenham Hotspur
on their return to the field on June 19, but they have won their four Premier
League games since, overcoming Sheffield United, Brighton & Hove Albion,
Bournemouth and Aston Villa, winning by a three-goal margin on each occasion. The
20-time English champions will take on Crystal Palace, West Ham United and
Leicester City in their final three league games of the season, while they also
have an FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea on July 19 and will resume their Europa
League campaign at the start of next month.

Southampton, meanwhile, have also been in impressive form since the lockdown
period, winning three and drawing one of their five matches since June 19. The
Saints have had their problems this season but a 1-0 win over Manchester City on
July 5 was an indication of their improvement, while they also picked up a good
point away to Everton on Thursday night. A total of 44 points from 34 matches has
left Ralph Hasenhuttl's side in 12th position in the table and finishing in and
around their current spot would certainly go down as a success. Indeed,
Southampton, who will take on Brighton & Hove Albion, Bournemouth and Sheffield
United in their final three matches, have finished 17th and 16th in their last two
Premier League seasons. United will the be the favourites to continue their
excellent form, but the Saints actually have the fifth-best away record in the
Premier League this term, picking up 27 points from their 17 matches, with only
Liverpool, Chelsea and Man City gathering more points on their travels during the
2019-20 campaign.
