Both Manchester United and Bournemouth have seen their respective Premier League form improve in recent weeks ahead of what promises to be an intriguing game at Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon.
Erik ten Hag's side enjoyed an impressive 2-1 win over Chelsea on Wednesday night while Bournemouth went to Crystal Palace and inflicted a 2-0 defeat on Roy Hodgson's out-of-form Eagles.
There is confidence flowing through each side now, but they are also both in fragile situations. One defeat for Man Utd can change the entire feeling around the team, while a loss for Bournemouth could see them slip back down the standings.

Man Utd vs Bournemouth score prediction
Both of these teams seemed to be in serious trouble slightly earlier in the season and while it takes much longer for Man Utd to be viewed in a different light, this is a good patch of the Premier League season for both sides.
Given the quality of the players, Man Utd have to be viewed as the favourites to secure another important three points here at Old Trafford but don't expect Bournemouth to roll over and give Ten Hag's side an easy afternoon.
