Manchester United host Bournemouth in the Premier League with Marcus Rashford’s situation continuing to attract attention.
Ruben Amorim has once again made the decision to leave the England forward out of the squad, having done the same for last weekend’s Manchester derby and the chaotic midweek Carabao Cup defeat to Tottenham.
Bournemouth, meanwhile, travel to Old Trafford in form with Andoni Iraola’s Cherries looking to close in on the top four with victory.
“I think we are improving near the opponent box. We have some games that we are near the box but without real threat. You could see different things [against Tottenham],” Amorim pointed out ahead of the game. “You could see we can shoot, we are near the goal and you feel it, you really feel it. I think it is a good thing in our team.”

Man Utd 0-0 Bournemouth
Ugarte has already won the ball well on a few occasions in both halves. He seems to be growing into his role in this side, though he’s less effective in attack. It still hasn’t clicked for the home side when they have the ball.
Man Utd 0-0 Bournemouth
More scrappy play from both sides as Kepa clears a long ball before Malacia loses possession too easily. Moments later, Ouattara swings in a cross that Onana collects easily enough.

Fernandes sees the space open up in front of him and decides to have a pop from distance, but it’s too close to Kepa. That would have had to been a stunner.

Mainoo has made a few forays into the box so far but he hasn’t been able to put the final pass in, despite showing some good footwork. It was good defending from Tyler Adams on this occasion to prevent the cross.

It’s still not clicking for either side in attack, with a ball towards Kerkez flying straight out of play.
Man Utd 0-0 Bournemouth
Semenyo’s foul gives United a free-kick, though it’s a far less dangerous position. Fernandes clips it in, but Christie deals with it easily.
Man Utd 0-0 Bournemouth
Christie lines up the free-kick and plays a lovely clipped ball into the box, and it almost ends with a good chance, but the flag goes up for offside.
Man Utd 0-0 Bournemouth
The first chance for Bournemouth as the ball finds its way to Semenyo and he fires a tame effort straight at Onana.
Moments later, Maguire is penalised for a late challenge and the visitors will have a free-kick in a dangerous position.
Man Utd 0-0 Bournemouth
Nothing strange in terms of positions today, with United settling into the setup we’ve become accustomed to under Amorim. Malacia and Dalot are the wing-backs today, with Mainoo and Amad as the advanced midfielders.
Some good defending from Martinez as he reads the run and prevents Smith getting down the wing.
