Southampton host Manchester United on Saturday afternoon after both sides recorded victories in their previous league games; Saints won at Crystal Palace whereas United demolished Everton at home.

United are currently second only behind city rivals Manchester City based on alphabetical order and so Jose Mourinho’s side will be looking to extend their unbeaten start to the season where they’ve only dropped two points from a possible 15 when they visit St. Mary’s.

Despite Southampton being a solid defensive unit, United will offer them their sternest attacking threat of the season on Saturday as United are currently joint top scorers in the league with a whopping 16 goals from just five games in the league!

But who do does contributor Dan Hargraves think will offer United’s main threat in Saturday’s game?
