Follow live coverage as Manchester United face Southampton in the Premier League today.

Manchester United made two changes for Sunday’s Premier League match against rock-bottom Southampton. Jadon Sancho and Aaron Wan-Bissaka came in for Fred and Diogo Dalot following Thursday’s 4-1 win against Real Betis in the Europa League.

Charly Alcaraz was passed fit to start for Southampton, who made one alteration as Romain Perraud replaced Ainsley Maitland-Niles.

We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

For United, the stalemate keeps them two points above fourth-placed Tottenham in third, while they are eight points clear of top-four chasing Liverpool and appear certain to secure a Champions League return at the end of the season. Southampton remain bottom, but with eight other teams within just five points of Selles' men, their battle to avoid the drop is far from over!

It ends goalless at Old Trafford as the referee blows for full-time, but nobody is quite sure how! Casemiro's first-half red card for a lunging challenge on Alcaraz made an already open contest even more evenly-matched. Fernandes went closest for United when he saw his shot tipped onto the post by Bazunu, while both Ward-Prowse and Walker-Peters rattled the woodwork at the other end. All in all, a draw was probably the right result.
