MUN Vs SOU Dream11 Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: A win for Southampton today sees them sit on the cusp of breaching the top 10 in the league
Prior to today’s encounter, Manchester United saw both Leicester City and Chelsea slip up in the fight for the top 4. With both the teams suffering harrowing defeats, their plight gives Manchester United a chance to not only move into the top 4 with a win today but sit as high as third place with their sixth successive win.
Improved ever since the Premier League has made a return to the land of England’s footballing fraternity, this Manchester United side has been right in the mix for a Champions League spot since the league has restarted. The club has utilised the extremely favourable set of fixtures it keep raking in the points as sides around them flounder.
Elsewhere, Southampton have been stealing plaudits this season as well. From being routed 9-0 back in 2019 to currently sitting in 12th place with 44 points, the club’s story of rejuvenation and resurgence has been an example of what the right leadership and set of gusty and gritty players can help achieve on the pitch.
Probable Winner
Unbeaten in their last three encounters after drawing 1-1 with Everton, this Southampton team is no longer one which scrounges its way through to favourable results. It’s a team which has reinvented itself, a side capable of going on war footing and making side flinching on the day.
However, their defence causes to continue jitters in the side, a predicament which will see the side taste defeat come this clash.

MUN Vs SOU Dream11 Picks
Goal-Keeper
As Everton hit back hard in the second half, a wheeling Southampton side slowly saw itself edging closer towards a defeat in their last clash. Alex McCarthy had different ideas though with the player cajoling his way a slew of saves to put Everton’s carnage to slumber.
Defenders
Our set of picks begin with Aaron Wan-Bissaka from Manchester United. The newly acquired player has had a telling impact on the club, transforming a horrid backline with his slew of tackles and blocks.
And he’s added attacking thrust into his game as well to come up with three assists this term to make the rightback a must have pick for us. With three cleansheets in their last four encounters, we are going to be indulging in the defensive CB of Victor Lindelof and Harry Maguire as well from the club.
Elsewhere, Jan Bednarek is someone who has entrapped sides in a fracas when trying to score past him to make the CB our pick from Southampton.
Midfielders
Although Bruno Fernandes has had a clear effect on Manchester United’s gameplan since making a foray into the club in January, an unsavoury aspect has emerged to his game as well. He has persistently dived, one which saw him earn a penalty in the bygone clash.
And with the club getting a record 13 penalties this season, Bruno Fernandes makes for ideal selection for today’s encounter along with Paul Pogba who scored in the previous tie as well. Southampton elsewhere have the singular pick line up our facet as well with us indulging in the services of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg given his ability to scour the ball from defence to attack.
Strikers
Danny Ings just can’t stop scoring for Southampton this season. The player has managed to ignite a flickering career with a season that has seen him wrench Southampton out of their quandary, a player who with 19 goals had to be entertained by us.
Manchester United on the other hand see us opt for Anthony Martial who has a well versed 15 goals with Mason Greenwood with the 9 goals coming in to partner him up for the contest.
Captain And Vice-Captain
His 6 assists and current goal scoring touch see us make Bruno our side’s captain while Martial is the vice-captain.
