After a shocking week for Manchester United they face Turkish side Bursaspor at Old Trafford without Wayne Rooney, but will they be able to put the week’s upheaval behind them and claim all three points? Bet365 make them the 1.22 favourites to win the match, with Bursaspor available at 12.00 and the draw can be backed at 6.50.
Where to start with Manchester United? The main story of the week for them and their fans is that Wayne Rooney has decided against signing a new contract and is looking to leave the club. He will not play against the Turkish side because of this, but because of an ankle injury suffered in training. Will this story have an effect on the team for this match? It is likely, as it seemed to affect the team as they let a two goal lead slip against West Brom at the weekend to draw 2-2 at Old Trafford. United have scored just once in their two Champions League games this season and they will need to improve that to claim all three points in this match.
Bursaspor are in fine form in the Turkish league as they top the table after ten games, winning eight and drawing two of them. However, in the Champions League they are not so impressive as they have lost both games without scoring a single goal. They were beaten 4-0 at home by Valencia and 1-0 away by Rangers and with Manchester United not having conceded a goal in their two Champions League games they face an uphill task of getting anything here. Can they do so though?
I can’t see Bursaspor getting anything from this game and being as Manchester United have scored at least two goals in all bar one game at Old Trafford this season I see this being a game that will get their confidence back. As a result of this I’m going for a resounding Manchester United win by backing Manchester United to lead at half time and win the match at odds of 1.67 and Manchester United to win to nil at 1.95.
