Southampton vs. Manchester United Team News:
Southampton are in dire straits following last week’s 3-2 loss away at Fulham, and manager Mark Hughes is seeing the vultures circling as speculation about his job security heightens each week.
Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho is enduring a similarly torrid time from the press and an expectant fanbase, looking more miserable every game - win, draw or lose.
United are currently sat 7th in the Premier League table, seven points off the Champions League qualification places. Saints, meanwhile, dropped to 19th last night after Cardiff City defeated Wolverhampton Wanderers, lifting them from the relegation zone.
Danny Ings, Ryan Bertrand and Matt Targett are all big doubts for Southampton, each suffering from injury.
Alexis Sanchez and Victor Lindelof are certainties to miss out with injury for the Red Devils, while Marcos Rojo and Matteo Darmian are doubts.
