United All At Sea

Sometimes the stubbornness of the odds-makers means the bet picks itself. Bournemouth can't be close to 3/1 shots, at home, given the relative form of these two sides.

I’m not saying that Bournemouth will finish ahead of Manchester United in the final league table but you couldn’t rule out the Cherries running them close the way things are going.

Luckily that isn’t the issue at stake easier. It’s much more straightforward to state that the side sat 6th in the table, with home advantage, shouldn’t be 29/10 shots with Bet365 to win at home to the club in 8th position who have already been well beaten on the road at Brighton and West Ham this season.

United have enjoyed a mini-revival of late, but that was also the case before their trip to West Ham, which ended in 3-1 defeat. The problems at Old Trafford are simply on ice with the dropped Lukaku just the latest issue.

Bournemouth are no flash in the pan either. The Cherries have actually won 8 of their last 12 top flight outings dating back to the end of 2017-18.

Odds correct at time of publishing: 08:43 3rd Nov, 2018 but subject to change
