Two sides who suffered contrasting fortunes in midweek prepare for battle in Saturday's Premier League lunchtime clash as Manchester United welcome Southampton to Old Trafford.
The Red Devils were held to a 1-1 draw by Burnley in midweek, while Ralph Hasenhuttl's men ran out 3-2 winners in a pulsating clash with Tottenham Hotspur.
We say: Manchester United 2-1 Southampton
Very rarely do Southampton end a game having failed to score and managed to keep a clean sheet, but putting in similar levels of effort at Old Trafford will be a tough ask for Hasenhuttl's side after giving everything they had and more against Tottenham.
There ought to have been some stern words in the Man United dressing room in midweek, but with the reintroduction of Ronaldo and some more potential rotation in the final third, Rangnick's side will hope to shade a close contest and reignite their top-four pursuit.

Brentford and Crystal Palace will both seek an immediate return to winning ways when they do battle in Saturday's Premier League showdown at the Brentford Community Stadium.
The Bees went down 2-0 to Manchester City in midweek, while Patrick Vieira's side were held to a 1-1 draw by a resurgent Norwich City.
We say: Brentford 2-2 Crystal Palace
Brentford were certainly not embarrassed by Man City in midweek, and the prospect of welcoming Toney, Wissa and/or Mbeumo back to the starting lineup bodes well for the desperate Bees.
The last thing that Palace need is another draw - especially away from home - and their bountiful options in the final third should cause the hosts all sorts of problems, but we have faith in Frank's side to end their winless streak in an entertaining stalemate.

Everton vs. Leeds (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Two sides separated by one place and four points in the Premier League table prepare for battle at Goodison Park on Saturday, as Everton play host to Leeds United.
The Toffees fell to a disheartening 3-1 defeat at Newcastle United in midweek, while Marcelo Bielsa's men held Aston Villa to an enthralling 3-3 draw.
We say: Everton 3-1 Leeds United
Keeping clean sheets away from home is not Leeds' forte, and while Bielsa's men will always pose a threat at the other the end of the pitch, Lampard could very well turn Everton's fortunes around here.
The potential introductions of Van de Beek, Alli and Dominic Calvert-Lewin to the first XI could breathe new life into a Toffees side with a major point to prove in this contest, and we can see Lampard rectifying the mistakes of midweek with all three points here.

Watford vs. Brighton (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Watford will endeavour to claim their first goal and first win of the Roy Hodgson era when Brighton & Hove Albion make the journey to Vicarage Road on Saturday afternoon.
The Hornets went down 1-0 to West Ham United in midweek, while Graham Potter's men have not been in action since bowing out of the FA Cup to Tottenham Hotspur last week.
We say: Watford 1-1 Brighton & Hove Albion
The expected return of Sarr could give Watford that attacking injection they need to end their scoreless streak under Hodgson, and an improved defensive solidity should also serve the hosts well here.
Brighton fans will be sick of the sight of 1-1 stalemates as their side endeavours to end such a run, but that is exactly how we can envisage this encounter going as Watford continue to search for their first win of 2022.

Two in-form Premier League teams at opposite ends of the table will lock horns at Carrow Road on Saturday evening when Norwich City host Manchester City.
The Canaries are unbeaten in their last four matches across all competitions, while the Citizens last tasted defeat domestically back in October last year.
We say: Norwich City 1-3 Manchester City
Norwich have risen to the occasion against Man City in recent meetings and they will fancy their chances of a potential upset in front of their home supporters.
However, the Premier League leaders will be the strong favourites for Saturday's contest and they should have no problems in recording their 20th top-flight victory of the campaign.
