Manchester United ’s miserable run of form has reached crisis point and there is a real fear that things could go from bad to worse when they host Bournemouth. The Cherries have picked up seven points from their last three trips to Old Trafford , netting 10 times in those games, and are back on song after completing a hat-trick of wins with a famous victory over AC Milan.
We’re snapping up a BOYLE Sports price boost of 6/5 for the visitors to win either half as our initial Man Utd vs Bournemouth prediction.

Head-to-Head
Man Utd vs Bournemouth head-to-head record
These teams produced a couple of entertaining draws last season, with a 4-4 thriller in Manchester followed by an eventful 2-2 stalemate at Vitality Stadium , which featured two penalties and a red card for Harry Maguire . Bournemouth are unbeaten in the past six meetings , having prevailed 3-0 at Old Trafford in each of the previous two campaigns, so 5/4 for more than one away goal to go in here is another tempting option .
Form Guides
Man Utd form guide
Beleaguered United manager Michael Carrick must be wondering what has hit him this term after such a promising finish to last season. The Red Devils are currently on a seven-match winless run which has been littered with lethargic performances and dissension amongst the playing ranks .
Lisandro Martinez hit out at the club’s recruitment policy after a 2-0 defeat at Atletico Madrid and captain Bruno Fernandes reacted to Wednesday’s humbling 4-1 loss at Como with critical comments about the tactics used .
Club legend Wayne Rooney has lambasted the current squad for acting like “babies”, stating on The United Stand podcast: “These players, they’re selfish. They care about themselves, they don’t care about their team-mates, don’t care about the manager, about the staff or the fans, they care about themselves.”
Fernandes is expected to be given a chance to redeem himself, though, and he does have a good record against the Cherries , scoring in both meetings last term and netting four times in the past five encounters. Looking at the Man Utd vs Bournemouth odds , 7/4 for the Portugal playmaker to strike at any time here is a fair price.
Bournemouth form guide
Bournemouth had a patchy start to the season after replacing Andoni Iraola with Marco Rose but now look firmly back on track following three straight home wins . The Cherries followed up a 3-0 Europa League success versus Sturm Graz by securing a first Premier League triumph of the campaign when seeing off Sunderland 2-0.
That set things up nicely for the visit of AC Milan and Bournemouth took full advantage of the seven-time European champions going down to 10 men in the first half to post a memorable 3-0 victory . Rose described that display as “brilliant from the first minute to the last” and added: “We know we are good if we have the whole squad. We know we can compete with everyone.”
Marcus Tavernier is one player who has really impressed us this term, with a penalty on Thursday night taking his goal tally to five. The 27-year-old makes the kind of late runs from deep positions that can catch out the Red Devils’ static defence, so 9/4 for him to hit the target again here is added to our Man Utd vs Bournemouth betting tips .
