Betting tips 22 Dec 2024

Manchester United return from London defeated but proud. Will Thursday's additional match impact their Sunday encounter against a dangerous Bournemouth side?

On Thursday, Manchester United fell to Tottenham Hotspur (3:4) in the League Cup quarter-final. This marks the second defeat by Tottenham Hotspur, but there's a significant change—in character. Back in late September, under Erik ten Hag, Manchester United failed to mount a comeback at both 0:2 and 0:3. Now, under Rúben Amorim, they also trailed 0:3 but showed resilience against the home defence. Fraser Forster was unaware of the lurking predators: Manchester United's forwards pounced twice on the goalkeeper, clawing back two goals. However, their own goalkeeper, Altay Bayındır, let them down, conceding from a corner. It simply wasn't a good day for goalkeepers. In the league, André Onana will be in their goal, and while he's prone to errors, they occur less frequently.

Bournemouth players also enjoy an attacking flair. In their last three away games, more than two goals have been scored. This has often not hindered their success. Their most recent victories are prime examples: over Wolverhampton (4:2) and Ipswich Town (2:1). However, these were against lower-half teams, making them easier opponents. Bournemouth are certainly capable of defeating Tottenham Hotspur too (1:0), but only when at home.

Last season, Bournemouth achieved success at Old Trafford (3:0) through counter-attacking play. They will likely employ the same tactic again, but now Manchester United are significantly more aggressive. It will be tough for Bournemouth to avoid conceding goals and likely a defeat. We're opting for a balanced approach.
