Manchester United make the trip to Southampton to kick off another GameDay here at talkSPORT.
talkSPORT is your go-to destination for all the Premier League action on every Saturday this season – with top-flight commentaries across all three time slots.
This weekend, we’re kicking things off at St Mary’s as Ralph Hasenhuttl and the Saints host Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s United.
Southampton lost their opening two top-flight fixtures this term but bounced back last weekend with a 2-0 win at Brighton.
United, meanwhile, were superb in their 4-0 opening day victory over Chelsea but were woeful to lose 2-1 at home to Crystal Palace last time out.
Both sides will now be looking for three points in this weekend’s early kick-off.
This fixture finished 2-2 last term while United won their Old Trafford meeting 3-2, suggesting there will be goals on the south coast.
talkSPORT will have a full schedule of live and exclusive coverage throughout the day and here’s how you can catch our first offering.
