Erik ten Hag doesn’t know how to achieve his goals. Ronaldo was right.
The fourth round of the English Premier League kicks off on September 14. It will open with the match between Southampton and Manchester United, which will be played at St. Mary’s Stadium. The game starts at 14:30 Moscow time.
Bookmakers’ odds for the Southampton – Manchester United match on September 14, 2024
The bookmakers consider the Red Devils to be favourites and offer to bet on their victory at odds of 1.75. The Saints’ chances were estimated at 4.60. The probability of a draw has a coefficient of 4.15.
According to experts, the meeting will be productive. You can bet on a total of over 2.5 goals for 1.60, and a total of under 2.5 goals is valued at 2.35. Bets on “both goals” are accepted with a rate of 1.68.
Analysis and prediction for the match of the 4th day of the Premier League Southampton – Manchester United (14/09/2024)
The Saints went into the international break without a point. They lost all three games of the new Premier League season and conceded a total of five goals. They scored just one. Southampton lost to Newcastle (0-1), Nottingham Forest (0-1) and Brentford (1-3).
Now the Southampton manager is under pressure. Perhaps, in a match against someone from the bottom of the table, Russell Martin’s men would have shown strength and gotten their first points, but they have the match against Manchester United ahead of them.
Of course, there is no talk of a revival of the “Red Devils”. Erik ten Hag remains the main target of criticism. Having modestly beaten Fulham 1-0 in the first round, Manchester United suffered two defeats: to Brighton (1-2) and Liverpool (0-3). If the Mancunians do not win against Southampton as well, there will surely be consequences.
The Red Devils are constantly plagued by injuries. The new season is here, and the team has once again entered it without many leaders. But Manuel Ugarte should make his debut in the next match. There is little chance that he will start tearing and shooting from the penalty spot. On the other hand, any strengthening will not hurt ten Hag now.
It will be hot this weekend:

Rasmus Hoylund, Leni Joro, Victor Lindelof and Mason Mount remain in the infirmary. In the match against Liverpool, the main attacker was newcomer Joshua Zirkzee, who received a very low rating for his play. The worst thing is that the coach does not know how to get out of such situations. Time-tested.
It is not surprising that Cristiano Ronaldo harshly criticised Erik ten Hag in an interview the other day. He recalled that the Manchester United manager said that his players were not capable of fighting for victory in the Premier League and the Champions League. The Portuguese striker reproached the Dutch manager for this. The footballer advised him to seek advice and listen to the club’s legends.
I would like to draw your attention to the last four head-to-head meetings between Southampton and Manchester United. Three ended in a draw and one in a victory for the Red Devils, but by a minimum score of 1-0. Both the Saints need to win and Ten Hag’s team needs to win. In this case, the game can be nervous and scary. The best bet option would be a total of under 3 goals for 1.87. Especially considering the Mancunians’ injury problems.
Tender: total less than 3 goals for 1.87.
