The Cherries will be without Hamed Traore, Antoine Semenyo, Marcus Tavernier, Ryan Fredericks and Junior Stanislas for this clash at the Vitality Stadium.

There was no manager of the season nomination for Gary O'Neil despite doing the seemingly impossible by keeping Bournemouth up. The former midfielder has drawn top performances out of Philip Billing, Dominic Solanke and Jefferson Lerma, all of whom will feature here.

Man Utd are still sweating over the fitness of Marcus Rashford, who missed out last weekend due to injury. However, he has rejoined Erik ten Hag's training group and could be fit in time.

Raphael Varane made his return against Wolves and will partner Victor Lindelof again in central defence.

Man Utd predicted lineup (4-2-3-1): De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Lindelof, Shaw; Casemiro, Eriksen; Antony, Fernandes, Sancho; Rashford.


Bournemouth vs Man Utd score prediction

With their Premier League status assured, Bournemouth only have positional rankings to play for in their final two Games. That should play into United's hands, as the visitors are still pushing to secure a top four spot.

The Cherries come into the clash having lost their last two Games to Chelsea and Crystal Palace, meaning they should be ripe for Man Utd to pick off on their trip down south.

Rashford's availability could be key, but United have the motivation and a better squad to match and should grab all three points.

Score prediction: Bournemouth 1-3 Man Utd
