**Southampton, England** – Manchester United will be looking to bounce back from a recent slump when they travel to St. Mary’s Stadium to face Southampton in the Premier League’s opening match following the international break.

The Red Devils, under pressure after back-to-back defeats, including a stinging loss to rivals Liverpool, will be hoping to capitalize on their historically strong record against newly promoted sides. They have lost only one of their last 30 Premier League games against such teams.

Meanwhile, Southampton are struggling in their return to the top flight, having suffered three consecutive defeats in their opening matches. Manager Russell Martin, known for his preference for playing out from the back, may need to adopt a more pragmatic approach to secure their first points of the season.

The match kicks off at 12:30 p.m. BST (7:30 a.m. ET, 4:30 a.m. PT in the US and Canada, 9:30 p.m. AEST in Australia) and will be available to stream on various platforms around the world.
