Manchester United vs Southampton LIVE highlights and reaction as Casemiro sent off after VAR check

Manchester United can win their second game in a week against Southampton at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon.

United responded to the Anfield debacle in the perfect fashion against Real Betis in the Europa League on Thursday, when defeating the Spanish club 4-1 thanks to goals from Marcus Rashford, Antony, Bruno Fernandes and Wout Weghorst.

Erik ten Hag was delighted with the response and the Dutchman's attention will now return to the Premier League, as Southampton, who have already sacked two managers this season, are set to visit Old Trafford this weekend.

Ruben Selles has been appointed as the Saint's interim manager until the end of the season and his side, who have won just six games in the Premier League this term, are rooted to the bottom of the table in the relegation zone.

Regarding team news, Anthony Martial remains out as does Marcel Sabitzer. Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Jadon Sancho are handed starts.

Lisandro Martinez and Antony were almost in the technical area. Antony applauded Luke Shaw for a cynical foul that warranted a yellow card.

Southampton are unlikely opponents to bring out the siege mentality in Manchester United. United played with 10 men for an hour as both goals led charmed lives in an enthralling goalless draw.

Erik ten Hag approached referee Anthony Taylor on the pitch at full-time and they shook hands professionally. United will not be appealing Casemiro's overzealous 34th-minute tackle on Carlos Alcaraz that signalled his second expulsion of the season.
