The Red Devils delivered what was perhaps their performance of the season against Liverpool in a 2-2 draw at Anfield before dumping Arsenal out of the FA Cup. Ruben Amorim's work seems to be taking effect with United looking more structured and resilient in defence, along with a greater ruthlessness in attack.
But supporters will hope this isn't yet another false dawn. In recent years, United have often reserved their best displays for the biggest fixtures and come a cropper in more winnable games. A home tie against Southampton certainly represents a winnable game, and moreover is an ideal opportunity to make a statement to their rivals.
United are unbeaten in their last 15 Premier League games against Southampton, while Saints are winless in their last 17 top-flight away games. As for visiting Southampton, it's all looking pretty bleak. Ivan Juric's side are rock-bottom of the division with just six points and one victory all season, and some bookmakers have them at 1/500 to be relegated.
