Bournemouth Predicted Lineup to Face Manchester United Today

Bournemouth travel to Old Trafford today, Sunday October 25, 2026, with real belief they can make it four visits unbeaten.

Under Marco Rose, the Cherries are finding rhythm after a slow start. Back-to-back 3-0 wins over Sturm Graz and AC Milan in the Europa League and a first Premier League win over Sunderland have lifted them to within a point of United.

Rose is expected to stick with his trusted 4-2-3-1, the same shape that has troubled United in recent years. Bournemouth are unbeaten in the last six meetings with United, including two 3-0 wins at Old Trafford.

Predicted Bournemouth XI vs Man Utd (4-2-3-1): Petrović; Smith, Hill, Silva, Truffert; Adams, Christie; Rayan, Kluivert, Tavernier; Evanilson



In goal, Djordje Petrovic keeps his place. Veteran Adam Smith returns at right-back alongside James Hill, summer signing António Silva, and Adrien Truffert on the left.

Tyler Adams and Ryan Christie will anchor midfield, giving freedom to the creative trio of Rayan, Justin Kluivert and captain Marcus Tavernier. Leading the line is Brazilian Evanilson, who has already contributed four assists in the league this season through his link-up play.

Team news: Alex Scott, Alex Tóth and Julián Araujo remain sidelined, while Eli Junior Kroupi is available for the first time this season from the bench.
