    As always, thank you for joining us! See you in a bit for some more Premier League action!
  • 95'
    FT: Southampton 1-1 Manchester Utd. Solskjaer still has some work to do and it shows, despite good performances from new signings James, Bissaka and Maguire. Meanwhile, Southampton can be proud of their current run, with Che Adams and Vestergaard proving particularly useful.

  • 95'
    Stuart Armstrong goes in the book in the last few seconds, and the referee blows his whistle! Saints' manager Ralph Hasenhüttl celebrates as if he had won 5-0. It's all about perspective isn't it?
  • 95'
    And another tackle by James! What is happening? Messy end to this game.
  • 94'
    Young is booked for complaining... The man is clearly injured, surely he can wait for a few seconds.
  • 93'
    Possible injury in the last few seconds... Cedric is in a bit of trouble here as Daniel James gets his feet all wrong, boots the ball straight out for a goal kick and ends up clocking the Saints defender on the Achiles.
  • 90'
    Four minutes of added time!
  • 88'
    CHANCE! A couple of stepovers and a drop of the shoulder from Greenwood, before his curler is pushed away by Gunn.
  • 86'
    A good effort from Southampton here, but not enough to change the score.
  • 83'
    Chance for Rashford! Pogba picks up a loose ball and angles a pass into the area for Rashford, whose low shot from a tightish angle is kicked away by Gunn.

    Ings out for Yoshida.
  • 72'
    RED CARD! Having already been booked, Danso has just cut McTominay in half with a shocking tackle. Mike Dean has no choice.

Substitution

Substitution

at Manchester United
  • 68'
    Pereira is the man to make way for Lingard and, interestingly, Nemanja Matic is also on, in place of Juan Mata, so you would imagine that'll mean a more attacking role for Paul Pogba.
  • 61'
    Che Adams is the first to be subbed. Decent game from the new Saints' signing. Long replaces him.
  • 57'
    GOAAAALLLLLLL!!!!!!!!! Southampton level the score!
  • 54'
    How could Che Adams miss that! Another error from Lindelof concedes possession, and Boufal does well, controlling and nudging though to Che Adams. He's in on the angle, but rather lashes at his effort and shoots it way too wide. Maybe a little lack of Premier League experience showing here?
  • 51'
    More superb defending from Vestergaard, who has done a decent job on Rashford. Again, it's James causing problems with a skillful low ball, and the Saints defender slides in to deny Rashford a tap-in.
  • 46'
    Second half underway!
  • 45'
    Half time! See you in 15 min.

    2 min of added time!
  • 43'
    Nothing consistent or worth mentioning here. Southampton still pushing offensively, which is always a good sign.
  • 40'
    Maguire is booked for a late tackle on Adams. That aside, he’s been excellent, especially in possession.
  • 39'
    Very good presence from Mata in this first half. The standout performer for Utd right now.
  • 37'
    Man United can't keep the ball anymore. If Southampton was slightly more organised offensively, this game would be tied by now.
  • 34'
    Southampton has turned up the pressure now. The last few minutes have shown hints of attacking brilliance, although the final push isn't there. Ings takes the ball on his thigh and has a go from miles. Not too far wide, but Southampton are enjoying their best spell since the goal. Man U struggling a lot defensively now.
  • 30'
    Danso’s long throw is punched away unconvincingly by De Gea and headed further away by Lindelof. First real chance for Southampton here!
  • 28'
    Southampton see the initial corner away but James finds Rashford near the six-yard box, giving the striker a free header! Somehow Rashford conspires to head wide. He may have been offside anyway...
  • 27'
    Juan Mata is proving as important as Daniel James today. Impressive performance from the Spaniard, who is proving essential.
  • 25'
    Southampton look to bypass United's press and find Adams with a ball over the top. The striker can't keep the ball in under pressure from Lindelof and concedes a throw near United's corner flag.
  • 21'
    Southampton started well but they’ve been a mess in the last few minutes. Home supporters are not happy...
Card

Yellow card

a Southampton
  • 20'
    Yellow card for Denso for a foul on Pereira.
  • 18'
    Wan-Bissaka unleashes a venomous shot on the volley when the ball's cut back and crossed to him in the box. Fortunately for Southampton it's always rising.
  • 13'
    Southampton look to strike back straight away as Hojbjerg booms a shot over from range. Fourth goal in three games for Daniel James here. Like we said, what a signing.
  • 10'
    What a signing for Manchester United. The former Swansea player was at the right place at the right time in what was essentially the first substantial action from the Red Devils in this first half. Questionable defending from Cedric, who chooses to track the run of Juan Mata on the overlap and gifts James far too much space to drift inside and rattle a stunning effort into the top corner.

Goaaaaaal!

    GOAAAAAALLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!! DANIEL JAMES!!!
  • 6'
    Southampton's midfield is rather narrow, making it hard for United to pass out from the back. United win a throw when Ward-Prowse nicks the ball off Young. The usual issues for Man Utd here...
  • 4'
    Pogba goes down after being hounded by Hojbjerg. United free-kick. James looks for Rashford but the striker's touch fails him. The ball eventually comes to McTominay, who balloons a shot over the bar. Energetic start!
  • 3'
    Very strange sight to see Man Utd play in black. Very mistake inducing...
  • 2'
    United get the ball rolling, but as we've now gotten used to, Solskjaer's men are not on the offensive from the get-go.
  • 1'
    And we're off!

    A few minutes to kick off....
  • PRVW
    Last week's performance was interesting and out of the ordinary for both teams... And not in the best way. Manchester will be looking for a moral boosting win, while Southampton will be looking to keep their hopes and moral up; a defeat with too many goals can harm these kinds of teams.
  • PRVW
    Meanwhile, United make three changes from their shock defeat to Crystal Palace. They're without Shaw and Martial, while Lingard drops to the bench.
  • PRVW
    Southampton make two changes from their victory away to Brighton last week. Nathan Redmond got injured in their EFL Cup outing midweek, so Boufal replaces him in the starting XI! Will be enough for at least a draw?
  • PRVW
    Southampton starting XI:Gunn; Cedric, Vestergaard, Bednarek, Danso; Hojbjerg, Romeu; Boufal, Ward-Prowse; Ings, Adams.
  • PRVW
    Manchester United starting XI: De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Young; Pogba, McTominay; Pereira, Mata, James; Rashford.
  • PRVW
    Let's look at those line-ups shall we?
