Thursday evening’s Premier League clash sees Man United, fresh from their penalty win over Arsenal in the FA Cup, hosting bottom of the table Southampton at Old Trafford.

PP ambassador Joe Cole reckons it’s going to be one-way traffic here. He’s backed two goalscorers, too, which are both covered by Paddy’s Super Sub offer, meaning if a player is substituted, the pick carries over to his replacement.

Let’s get his Man United v Southampton betting tips.

I think it’s a safe bet to say that Man United will beat Southampton well here. I don’t know what Southampton are going to do from now until the end of the season. As a club, it was one year too early for them to come back into the Premier League, so, for many at the club, their minds will already be on the Championship next season.

Tyler Dibling is one of the best young players in the country at the moment, and seeing him develop over the rest of the season will be interesting.

Rubin Amorin’s Man United will win this game comfortably. Manuel Ugarte is looking like he’s not settled into their midfield, he’s getting better and better. I don’t see United really achieving anything this season, though; they’ll also be waiting for the summer when they can revamp the squad; it needs major surgery.

These are the sorts of games that United will win, I can see it ending 3-0 to the hosts. I like the look of Alejandro Garnacho to score and Bruno Fernandes to score, too, he took his goal so well against Arsenal on Sunday. There’s no doubt that United will score goals so I’d back them in the -2 handicap
