Sat in 12th place, Bournemouth are still chasing an unprecedented European finish, with Andoni Iraola transforming the Cherries into an entertaining side. Manchester United are still in a fight to secure European football, with pressure building on Erik Ten Haag.

Recent form analysis

Cheerful Cherriers

After Gary O'Neil was dismissed as manager in the summer, the Bournemouth hierarchy came in for serious flak. However, the appointment of Spaniard Andoni Iraola has transformed the Cherries, with the 41-year-old lauded for his entertaining style of play.

Bournemouth currently sit in 12th place and have outside aspirations of an unlikely European finish. A late collapse away at Luton halted a five-game unbeaten run. Bournemouth have also been potent in attack, with Liverpool and Manchester City the only sides to keep league-clean sheets against them in the last 23 games.

Iraola will be wanting to improve his side's home form, with Bournemouth only picking up 23 points in 16 games at the Vitality. However, they have only lost five games at home.

Stuttering Manchester United

Despite being dominated from minute one, Manchester United managed to scrape a draw against bitter rivals Liverpool. This allowed them to stay in sixth place.

The Red Devils are 11 points off fifth place and just eight points clear of Saturday's opponents in 12th. Ten Haag's side have been riddled with inconsistency and are now three games without a win.

A major issue has been the form at Old Trafford, with United only picking up 26 points at the Theatre of Dreams. They have 23 on the road and will be hoping to make it 26 on Saturday.

Head to Head

Due to the severe gulf in historic club size, these two clubs have only met on 21 occasions. Manchester United have won 14, with the Cherries winning four. The meeting earlier in the season saw Bournemouth run out surprise 0-3 winners at Old Trafford.

Our Betting Tip for Today

Last week, when Manchester United hosted Liverpool, I tipped over 11 corners. The bet had won by 50 minutes, with the game ending on 17 corners.

This season, Manchester United games are averaging 13.81 corners per game- the most in the league. Their last nine games have seen 17, 15, 18, 13, 17, 19, 14, 18, 13 corners.

Bournemouth ranks third for match corners, with their games averaging 11.90 corners per game - the third most in the league. This average is increased to 12.75 when playing at home. Over the last 16 home games, the lowest total their match has seen is 11. The totals are as follows:

11,17,14,13,14,11,17,18,13,11,14,11,12,15,15,12.

The reverse fixture saw 14 corners. In what should be a high-tempo game with both teams looking for the win, we should see plenty of corners at both ends of the pitch.

Cherry Picking

While the main tip is on match corners, Bournemouth will fancy their chances of causing a surprise on the South Coast. Manchester United are riddled with injuries defensively, with Victor Lindelof, Raphael Varane, Lizandro Martinez, Luke Shaw and Jonny Evans still out.

Bournemouth have a strong, quick and powerful front line who will look to exploit a shaky Red-Devils defence.
