Manchester United v Bournemouth: probable starters in bold, contenders in light Photograph: x

Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s has had the dream start at Manchester United, so the trick is to earn a third win and against a Bournemouth side who were beaten 2-1 in November’s reverse fixture. While Eddie Howe usually poses problems for any side, United, with Romelu Lukaku, Anthony Martial and Alexis Sánchez all potentially available again, surely have the tools to win. Jamie Jackson
