Manchester United head down to the south coast on the back of seven wins from their last nine matches in the Premier League. Hosts Bournemouth are unbeaten in their last 10 league games but have only managed to pick up four wins during that period, with their last four fixtures all ending in disappointing stalemates.
Manchester United edge the recent head-to-head record between the pair with four wins, three draws and three defeats from the last 10 league meetings, and haven't lost any of their last three trips to the Vitality Stadium.
Seven of Bournemouth's last 10 league games have ended with under 2.5 goals being scored, and Friday's hosts have failed to score in three of their last four outings.
The Red Devils haven't failed to score in any league games since their 1-0 defeat at home to Everton in November, and have climbed two wins from their last four on the road.
Two of United's last three away games, against Everton and West Ham, both produced under 2.5 goals, and Friday's guests have scored exactly one goal in each of their last three away trips.
We're predicting a tight and tense 90 minutes in Friday night's match under the lights, and have baked the visitors to come away with a narrow victory.
Bournemouth 0-1 Manchester United
