Manchester United are in Premier League action on Sunday afternoon as they visit European hopefuls Bournemouth.

The Cherries currently lead the cluster of teams who are hoping that an eighth place finish will be enough to play European football next season. Bournemouth started the weekend in eighth but have some catching up to do after Saturday's results saw them drop down a few places.

Still, they'll fancy their chances of securing victory against a United team that are focusing on next Thursday's trip to Athletic Club in the Europa League semi-finals. Ruben Amorim's side have lost three of their previous four Premier League outings and will record the lowest points tally in the club's Premier League history no matter how they conclude the season.

Here is 90min's guide to the clash.

Iraola is unlikely to make many changes from last week's draw at Crystal Palace, even if the Cherries failed to break down the ten-man Eagles.

Enes Unal is out for the season, while Ryan Christie and Luis Sinisterra are nursing groin and hamstring injuries respectively.

Lewis Cook could also miss out this weekend after picking up a knock at Selhurst Park.

Bournemouth predicted lineup vs Man Utd (4-2-3-1): Kepa; Smith, Zabarnyi, Huijsen, Kerkez; Scott, Adams; Semenyo, Kluivert, Ouattara; Evanilson.

Amorim has made it no secret that he'll be prioritising the Europa League, so the manager will preserve several of his key men for Thursday's first leg against Athletic Club. Bruno Fernandes, United's talisman, should start again, however.

Luke Shaw could make his first start of the the season in defence, while Mason Mount is poised for a return to Amorim's XI in an advanced position behind potential starting forward Chido Obi. Joshua Zirkzee's injury means Rasmus Hojlund will be relied upon during the remaining games of United's Europa League campaign.

There's hope that Matthijs de Ligt will be fit for the first leg in Spain, but the Dutchman is unlikely to play a part this weekend. Lisandro Martinez, Amad Diallo, Toby Collyer and Ayden Heaven are all sidelined. Diogo Dalot is a fresh injury concern for the visitors and could even miss the remainder of the season.

Man Utd predicted lineup vs Bournemouth (3-4-2-1): Onana; Mazraoui, Lindelof, Shaw; Dorgu, Fernandes, Ugarte, Amass; Mount, Mainoo; Obi.

Man Utd weren't awful in defeat to Wolves last weekend, eventually succumbing to a pinpoint Pablo Sarabia free-kick. Their Premier League woes are tough to stomach, but such domestic pain will be worthwhile should they go on to win the Europa League.

United head into this game with both eyes veering towards Thursday, and they're facing a hungry Bournemouth team that still fancy their chances of competing in Europe next season. A calmer schedule over the past couple of weeks has benefitted the Cherries, and they should claim victory at home on Sunday.
