On Thursday evening, from 20:00, Manchester United can recover in front of their fans, after the disappointment in the championship, with Bournemouth (0-1). The “devils” can ensure their qualification in the European spring, in the fourth stage of the UEFA Europa League groups. On “Old Trafford” comes Partizan Belgrade, which was defeated by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s group in the tour, score 0-2.
United defend themselves very well when playing on their own ground in the European Cups and there is little chance of seeing a surprise with the Serbs. Manchester United leads Group L, with 7 points in three stages (2-0 goal), while Partizan is in 3rd place, with four points (4-4 goal).
The difficulties in the game of black and white, coupled with the very good defense of the “devils” at this level, lead us to the most profitable bet: do not score both teams in the game on Thursday night. However, the odds show us that the success of the red-and-white is far from a mere formality, and Solskjaer’s team has provided surprises on its own in recent years. Partisan can be a dangerous nut on Thursday!
In the L group they play AZ Alkmaar and FC Astana, and the Dutch are in second place, with five points. Therefore, United can escape to the first position, and the batsmen and Serbs will fight for the last qualifying place, in the last two stages. For Partizan, a draw in the United Kingdom would be a very good result, which is why we expect a defensive score for the visitors.
If Solskjaer experiments in the first “11”, Partizan’s counter-attacks can be dangerous. Manchester United‘s form of momentum was encouraging, before the failure with Bournemouth (0-1), the first after a series of 5 consecutive matches. We will not risk betting on the victory of the favorites, but we rely on a tactical game.
