Man United vs. Bournemouth: Marcus Rashford's record against the Cherries

7 hours ago 1

Sports Mole looks at Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford's record against Bournemouth during his professional career.

Marcus Rashford could come back into contention for Manchester United on Sunday afternoon, when the Red Devils welcome Bournemouth to Old Trafford in the Premier League.

The England international has missed out on Man United's last two matchday squads against Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur, with head coach Ruben Amorim unhappy with his application in training and around the club's Carrington base.

Rashford told journalist Henry Winter earlier this week that he is ready to leave Man United, but Amorim said after the 4-3 defeat to Spurs in the EFL Cup that the 27-year-old could be back in the squad against Bournemouth.

The Red Devils academy product has scored seven goals and registered three assists in 24 appearances for the Red Devils during the 2024-25 campaign, but just four of those efforts have come in the Premier League, and he has once again cut a frustrated figure.

Here, Sports Mole takes a close look at how Rashford has performed against Bournemouth during his professional career, as he bids to potentially return to the field for Man United this weekend.

Marcus Rashford record vs. Bournemouth

Played: 11
Won: 7
Drawn: 2
Lost: 2
Goals: 5
Assists: 1

Rashford is actually the all-time leading goalscorer in matches between Man United and Bournemouth throughout history, having managed five goals.

The forward has faced the Cherries on 11 occasions during his professional career, with all of the fixtures coming in the Premier League, scoring five goals and contributing one assist.

Rashford has helped Man United record seven wins from his 11 appearances against Bournemouth, in addition to drawing twice and suffering two defeats.

The Englishman scored in his first-ever clash with Bournemouth on the final matchday of the 2015-16 campaign, netting in a 3-1 success for Man United at Old Trafford.

Rashford also registered twice against the Cherries during the 2018-19 campaign, with arguably his best performance coming at Old Trafford that season, scoring and providing an assist in a 4-1 success.

The Man United academy product also netted in a 5-2 success for the Red Devils at Old Trafford in the second half of the 2019-20 campaign, in addition to registering once in a 3-0 victory for the 20-time English champions when Bournemouth visited Old Trafford in 2022-23.

Rashford was not involved in the reverse match, though, which proved to be a 1-0 Man United win at the Vitality Stadium, due to a leg problem.

The forward featured twice against the Cherries during the 2023-24 campaign, coming on as a late substitute in Man United's 3-0 loss at Old Trafford, before playing the full 90 minutes of a 2-2 draw at the Vitality Stadium.
