Manchester United were the standout team of the 2021/22 Premier League opening weekend and will be aiming to build an early head of steam.

The Red Devils punished fierce rivals Leeds 5-1 as a Bruno Fernandes hat-trick dealt the main damage and Paul Pogba pulled the strings with four assists.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will be delighted by his team’s first display of the season and will be determined to compete in a season-long title race.

Southampton are next in United’s sights. The Saints march into this one in disarray following the late transfer departures of Danny Ings and Jannik Vestergaard.

New boy Adam Armstrong opened the scoring against Everton but Ralph Hassenhuttl’s men collapsed in the second half and conceded three times.

Our prediction: Southampton v Man Utd

Southampton have a track record of capitulations in the Premier League having conceded nine goals on two separate occasions under Hassenhuttl.

That stat may have become a cliche for commentators and writers across the land, but it does underline an issue that keeps coming back to haunt the Saints. They lack steel.

United will head to St Mary’s smelling blood, knowing they could roll up and dominate. Fernandes, Pogba, Greenwood could be joined by Sancho, and that spells doom for Southampton.

Our prediction: Southampton 0-3 Man Utd (12/1 at bet365)
