Match preview: United vs Bournemouth.

United will play Bournemouth on Saturday, their fifth game after Premier League restarted, from which they have taken 7 points and continued their unbeaten run.

Bournemouth on the other hand are in the relegation zone and haven’t managed to win a single game since their last five fixtures.

Ole reported no new injuries while giving the team news which will help him rotate the squad in the upcoming games.

“We’ve got many games coming up and we’ll keep chopping and changing and players are getting better and better – the ones who haven’t played,”

 Ole told reporters.

It will be an easy affair for the Red Devils considering the form and winning streak. Bournemouth will be without their Callum Wilson who picked up his 10th booking which saw him miss the game against Newcastle and also forced to sit out on Saturday.

The Champions League spot has intensified after Chelsea and Leicester City failed to win yesterday after which United are just 2 and 3 points behind the respective teams.

Ole and team will make no such mistake and grab all the points from their remaining games (fingers crossed).

What’s the key to this terrific run of form you’re in?
“There are many, many things. The focus is on one game at a time and the boys are working hard now and they did so over lockdown. They’re fit and they’re confident. When you’re confident it’s so much easier to go into the next one feeling that little bit sharper. We’re getting fitter and fitter the more games we have now. I’ve just been impressed by the attitude and the mentality of everyone. We know it’s there and you just need to keep focusing on your job for Bournemouth then it’s the next one after that.”

We’re hoping we’ve not picked up any little knocks or niggles – how’s the fitness of the squad right now?
“Of course there are a couple of knocks. You do start feeling things now after a little bit so there might be a couple of changes, but let’s see. The boys who didn’t play on Tuesday want to play and are ready to step in if they have to.“
