United v Bournemouth: The essential information
Manchester United will be hoping to extend our impressive unbeaten record when we welcome Bournemouth to Old Trafford on Saturday.
However, Saturday’s match will certainly not be an easy affair, with Bournemouth currently battling for every available point in their efforts to avoid the drop.
It should be a fascinating encounter at the Theatre of Dreams, and we’ve rounded up all the need-to-know pre-match information…

From their Stockley Park base, Lee Mason and Adrian Holmes will be keeping a watchful eye on the VAR monitors.
