Manchester United vs Bournemouth LIVE: Score and latest updates after early Dominic Solanke goal


You need competition for places – Ten Hag

Manchester United will be hoping to build on an impressive midweek performance as they face Bournemouth in the Premier League.

A double from Scott McTominay secured a significant victory over Chelsea for Erik ten Hag and his side, with the Old Trafford club now back in the top six.

Ten Hag made a number of significant selection decisions before the 2-1 win, with Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial left out of the starting side, although Martial returns to face the Cherries.

Bournemouth, meanwhile, were also midweek winners as a 2-0 win at Crystal Palace extended their unbeaten run in the league to four games.

Bournemouth boss Iraola does have fond memories of facing United. Indeed, he was part of the Athletic Bilbao side that defeated them 5-3 on aggregate in the last 16 of the 2011-12 Europa League.

There is a break in play with Garnacho in need of attention. The winger appeared to be caught in the face by Smith as he looked to break for United. He should be fine to continue, though.
