Ole Gunnar Solskjaer could name an unchanged Manchester United side for the fifth Premier League match running against Southampton.

United have won their last four league games with the same XI and have no new injuries to report ahead of Monday night's match at Old Trafford.

The last time United fielded the same team in five consecutive league games was in February 1993 and United will have had a four-day gap between the 3-0 win at Aston Villa and visit of Southampton.

"There are so many things you have to consider when you manage a team," Solskjaer said. "And, of course, there's a squad; we've got players here who are champing at the bit to play. But you have players in rhythm who keep on playing well, so there's less work on the training ground, obviously.

"There are loads of decisions to be made but they make it easier by playing well and performing well and looking after themselves. We don't get too many injuries, so there's no reason to change too much when you're doing well."

Southampton were one of the most impressive opponents at Old Trafford last season and were minutes away from claiming a 2-2 draw until Romelu Lukaku struck a late winner.

Coach Ralph Hassenhuttl has recovered from October's 9-0 annihilation by Leicester to take Southampton up to 12th in the league table and was recently awarded a four-year contract. United could only draw against 10-man Southampton at St Mary's and Solskjaer enjoys watching Hassenhuttl's side.

"Southampton are a very fine football club with traditions, it's a proper football club," Solskjaer added. "I wasn't expecting any changes [after the Leicester defeat]. I've followed Ralph's time there and have huge respect for the club and they have turned it around.

"Call it a German, aggressive, rock 'n' roll style of football, it's direct, it's high energy, it's hard work and difficult to play against and if you want to be part of his team you've got to be able run 10, 11 or 12 kilometres, you've got to be able to sprint.

"We've watched a few games and really enjoy watching them because it's high entertainment and high energy all the time."
