Marouane Fellaini has admitted that Manchester United are in for a "tough game" when they face Bournemouth in the Premier League this weekend.

Louis van Gaal's side head into the match following elimination from the Champions League earlier this week, while last season's Championship winners are fresh from victory over current Premier League champions Chelsea.

The Belgian international told the club's website: "It will be a tough game as they will be confident, so we need to be ready to challenge them. We have to take the three points to stay near the top of the table.

"Tuesday night was a disappointment for everyone but we now have to make a quick recovery and focus on the next game. It's an important month with a lot of games. Every player wants to show their quality and a win this weekend can give the players confidence again."

United sit three points behind league leaders Leicester City.
