We are in the last month of the year also nicknamed the busiest part of the year for most English teams. While other leagues in the various countries prefer to give their teams and players a bit of Christmas break, the English Premier League would play a whole lot of matches during the festive season giving a lot of fans memories during Christmas. One of such events is Cardiff against Manchester United.

Manchester United has not had the start which they imagined. The truth is that it had indeed been tough times for their boss Mourinho. From an internal crisis to arguments with ex-players of the club, he has a swell time so far this season. Manchester United are languishing in a league position which they would never have imagined that they would find themselves. As for Cardiff city, they have warmed up to this season so far and would be glad about what they have been able to achieve so far. They would be looking to make an impact in this match against the red devils.

The forms of the two teams would obviously not give us the best vision on how this match would go. Cardiff city has a lukewarm run of recent which is shown in the fact that they have lost 3 and won the remaining three out of all their matches. They would be looking to correct this record when they met with the red devils on the 22nd of December. Manchester United, on the other hand, has also had a decent run in their last six games. This has seen win four games, lose one and draw one in their previous six. They would be looking for ways to cement their status as one of the contenders for the top four by getting one over Cardiff City in this crucial fixture. Failure to win would see Manchester United fall further away from the leading top five and could even end their hopes of finishing in the top four this season.

Line-Ups

When it comes to the line-ups, Manchester United would be looking to use those who are regulars these days. You can expect the likes of Sanchez and Lukaku to not start in this match as Mourinho would prefer to stick with the likes of Martial and Rashford going into this match. There has been speculation that Sanchez would play no further part in the games this year as the transfer rumors surrounding his sales becomes even more rampant and real. Cardiff city would be hoping that their best first eleven would be fit and ready to play as they would consider it to be their best chance of getting anything out of this match. This combined with playing at home would give them a real confidence booster.

Manchester United would be hoping they pull this one off as they seek to maintain their recent good form in the league. There is just so much to look for in this match, and the neutrals would be eager to see which Manchester United turns up for this game.
