Betting Predictions
Manchester United are looking for their first Europa League win of the season when they travel to Porto this week.
On Sunday, Porto easily defeated Arouca 4-0 in the Primeira Liga, while the Red Devils were soundly defeated 3-0 at home by Tottenham Hotspur.
Head-to-Head
If Manchester United is to improve and gain any momentum in the club’s fortunes, they must turn around their current situation. Manchester United has only triumphed once this season away from home, and that victory came against Southampton.
Defensively, United have kept three clean sheets this season; yet, the Red Devils have lost three goals on two or more occasions this season – most notably to Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur.
On the other side, FC Porto made a great start to current Liga Portugal season as the squad follows a three-match winning streak. Nevertheless, FC Porto lost 3-2 against Bodo/Glimt in their first Europa League game, failing to secure a victory.
Team News
Owing to injuries, Porto will be without Ivan Marcano and Zaidu Sanusi for an extended period. Otavio is uncertain after missing the previous three games owing to a muscular problem.
Fabio Vieira, an Arsenal loanee, gave the Dragons hope last weekend when he was able to play again. The midfielder entered the game as a substitute and may be ready to start for the team on Thursday after rejoining in the summer.
Omorodion, who scored on his Europa League debut last time out and was heavily linked to Chelsea in the summer before joining Porto, is predicted to start at the front once more. Wingers Pepe and Galeno may also provide support for him in attack.
Leny Yoro and Luke Shaw are still out for Man United, and Kobbie Mainoo, Mason Mount, Harry Maguire, and Tyrell Malacia are all questionable. With his problem, Mainoo was forced off the field against Spurs near the end of the first half.
If Mainoo is judged unable to play, either Christian Eriksen or former Porto player Casemiro might step in for Ugarte in midfield. Captain Fernandes, although being dismissed from the Premier League on Sunday, is still eligible to play at number ten.
Rasmus Hojlund is now a threat to Joshua Zirkzee, as United has struggled to find a cutting edge in the final third. Meanwhile, Amad Diallo and Antony will continue to compete with Garnacho and Rashford for starts on the wings.
Probable Line-Up
Porto XI:
Costa; Mario, Pedro, Perez, Moura; Gonzalez, Varela; Pepe, Sousa, Galeno; Omorodion
Manchester United XI:
Onana; Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez, Dalot; Eriksen, Ugarte; Diallo, Fernandes, Rashford; Hojlund
Verdict
Tip Draw
Reason
Ten Hag will be hoping for a response from his Man United players on Thursday, but victory over Porto, who have only lost one of their last 22 home games (W18 D3) across all competitions, is not a given.
There have been 23 goals scored in the Red Devils’ last four European away games (nine for and 14 against), and they have only triumphed once in this run. Ten Hag and company might be in for another difficult road journey, and this time they might have to make do with a part of the loot.

Tip: Over 2.5 Goals
Reason
There would still be goals even if we anticipate a close contest for both teams. Given that the Red Devils have allowed seven goals in their last six road games, there is a good chance that this game will be high-scoring and involve both teams.
