Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is hopeful defensive duo Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof will be fit in time to face Bournemouth on Saturday with both players suffering minor knocks during the Carabao Cup victory over Chelsea. United have been plagued with injuries this season as Paul Pogba, Nemanja Matic, Eric Bailly and Luke Shaw are all out with various injuries. 

Bournemouth, on the other hand, will be without Charlie Daniels, Junior Stanislas and David Brooks for the game on Saturday.

Premier League: Bournemouth vs Manchester United match preview

Manchester United can possibly end the Matchweek on fifth in the table with a win and the other games going in their favour. Solskjaer though will be aware of a Bournemouth side that posses a greater attacking threat despite being minnows. Callum Wilson started the season in hot form for the Cherries but has seen it fade a bit in recent weeks having failed to score in the last three league games. However, Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe has been impressive against the supposed top six and might just have another surprise in store this weekend. United have done pretty well without their star-man Paul Pogba as new signings Daniel James and Aaron Wan-Bissaka have impressed while a returning Anthony Martial could only boost their confidence.
