Follow the live stream as AFC Bournemouth faces Manchester United in the Premier League today.
It is an important match for Manchester United, who did not allow any points to slip in their struggle to take part in the Champions League.
But Erik Ten Hag’s team may be heading to the south coast without Marcus Rashford, who missed last week’s win over the Wolves with a leg injury.
United will also be cautious as they enter the game, taking eight of their nine away losses to Old Trafford this season, but Ten Hag has chosen a team that remains unchanged from their side’s 2-0 win over the Wolves.
Bournemouth manager Gary O’Neill has urged his side to continue pushing for points despite Cherries’ battle for survival in the Premier League last weekend.
Bournemouth enters the game 14pearl He is on the table with 39 points, but O’Neill said he wanted a response within the week after his team’s 2-0 loss to Crystal Palace.
