Bournemouth vs Manchester United: Confirmed line-ups for Premier League clash

Manchester United make the trip to the South Coast, where they face Bournemouth for Friday night football in the Premier League.

The Red Devils are flying high under Michael Carrick since he took over from Ruben Amorim in January, with a place in next season’s Champions League looking very much on the cards.

But Bournemouth are a tricky opponent. Andoni Iraola’s side are on a decent run themselves, and will fancy their chances of disrupting United’s run.

Catch up with all the team news ahead of the match at the Vitality Stadium.
