Comments and predictions for Bournemouth vs MU: The Red Devils suffered a bitter defeat

Latest Bournemouth vs MU squad information

The Manchester United medical team now have a new patient, with Amorim revealing in a press conference on Friday that Diogo Dalot has suffered a calf injury that could be serious enough to keep him out for the rest of the season.

Dalot joins Joshua Zirkzee (thigh), Lisandro Martinez (cruciate ligament), Toby Collyer (foot), Matthijs de Ligt (ankle), Ayden Heaven (ankle) and Amad Diallo (ankle) on the injury list. However, some sources say Diallo could return to training with the team next week.

Dalot’s absence opens the door for teenage full-back Harry Amass, who impressed alongside Tyler Fredricson in the defeat to Wolves. However, Fredricson’s place is likely to be threatened by either Leny Yoro or returning Europa League hero Harry Maguire.

For Bournemouth, long-term injuries such as Enes Unal (knee) and Ryan Christie (groin) are still recovering, while coach Iraola confirmed that Luis Sinisterra's hamstring problem will not be able to recover in time.

Lewis Cook, who came on as a substitute in the draw with Palace, also needs further testing ahead of the game as he has been struggling with an ankle problem for the past few weeks.

Antoine Semenyo, who is set to face the club believed to be leading the race to sign him, heads into this weekend with an astonishing record: 116 shots in the Premier League in 2024-25 – the joint-most with Golden Boot contender Mohamed Salah.

Latest football commentary Bournemouth vs MU

From the highs of an extraordinary Europa League comeback against Lyon to the disappointment of another home defeat in the Premier League – this time to bottom-half rivals Wolverhampton Wanderers – Manchester United fans, players and coaching staff have been through the full range of emotions over the past week.

As Amorim's strikers continued to frustrate, Wolves' Pablo Sarabia shone with a stunning free-kick to seal the game at the Theatre of Dreams, condemning United to a second successive Premier League defeat and extending their winless run to four games in the competition.

At least Man United are mathematically certain of relegation, although they are still languishing in the bottom half of the table with an embarrassing record of 15 defeats – their worst run since the 1989-90 season.

However, what happens in the Premier League between now and the end of May will matter less if United can progress in the Europa League; Amorim's side travel to the Basque Country for the first leg of their semi-final against Athletic Bilbao on Thursday.

Before turning their attention to the continental stage, United must do their best to avoid a situation they have not encountered since pre-COVID 2019 – a run of five consecutive Premier League games without a win – something both Ralf Rangnick and Erik ten Hag have previously avoided.

Sharing the same frustration of failing to score against Man United last weekend, Bournemouth were also unable to capitalise on three controversial decisions in their favour against Crystal Palace, with Tyler Adams and Alex Scott escaping second yellow cards while Chris Richards was not so fortunate.

Despite playing with a man advantage throughout the second half, Cherries were unable to overcome the short-handed Eagles, making their already slim hopes of finishing in the top seven even more remote, now eight points behind Aston Villa despite having played a game less.

Bournemouth's eighth-place finish could still secure them a Europa Conference League place depending on the outcome of the FA Cup, but a run of just one win in their last seven games in all competitions suggests their form is not up to European standards.

However, last weekend's draw at Selhurst Park gave Bournemouth a club record 49 points in a Premier League season, and they now have the chance to keep three consecutive clean sheets for the first time since November 2019.

The omens are on Bournemouth's side: the last time they kept three consecutive clean sheets in the Premier League, the third was a 1-0 win over the same United team that had suffered a 3-0 home defeat to Iraola's European hopes in that bleak December.
