Man United FORM
Bournemouth FORM
Key Factors
Manchester United's current good form (one loss in last nine league games) versus Bournemouth's poor run (winless in last six).
Bournemouth's surprisingly dominant recent record at Old Trafford, having won their last two visits by a 3-0 scoreline.
Significant injury concerns for both teams, particularly in defense for Manchester United and across the squad for Bournemouth.
Manchester United's struggle to keep clean sheets (only one in their last 15 Premier League outings) suggests Bournemouth could find the net.
Injuries & Absentees
Manchester United has several key players sidelined or doubtful: defenders Matthijs de Ligt (knock/back issue) and Harry Maguire (hamstring injury) are out. Forward Benjamin Sesko is recovering from a knee injury and recent food poisoning, with a late assessment pending for his availability. Additionally, Diogo Dalot and Bruno Fernandes are listed with knocks and physical discomfort respectively, with potential late December returns. AFC Bournemouth also faces significant absences: Veljko Milosavljevic (knee injury), Ryan Christie (knee injury), and Ben Doak (hamstring injury) are all out. Midfielder Lewis Cook is suspended due to a red card. Marcos Senesi is doubtful due to muscle cramps/issues.
