Manchester United vs Sabah is a Champions League opener at Old Trafford on Thursday, with the hosts overwhelming favourites.
Andy Francis has the best bets, a score prediction and the head-to-head record for this Champions League clash below.
Premium Tips
Andy is with Manchester United, who should win comfortably.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Manchester United to win and Bruno Fernandes over 0.5 assists | 1/1 | Manchester United welcome Azerbaijani side Sabah to Old Trafford as huge favourites, and Ruben Amorim’s men showed their attacking teeth with a 5-2 demolition of Ipswich at home recently. Against opposition of this level, the goals should come. Bruno Fernandes is the key to this bet, and the Portuguese playmaker is one of the finest creators in the game, racking up an incredible 104 assists in 323 appearances for United. He pulls the strings from midfield and sets up chance after chance. With United expected to dominate and score freely, Fernandes teeing up at least one goal looks a strong play. |
| Marcus Rashford to score anytime and Bryan Mbeumo over 3.5 shots | 13/5 | Rashford is a proven match-winner at this level, with 127 goals in 395 United appearances and 389 shots on target, so backing the forward to find the net against a modest Sabah defence makes plenty of sense. He loves the big Old Trafford occasion. Mbeumo is the ideal shots pick, a relentless attacker who fired in 176 shots on target during his Brentford days and has continued to shoot on sight since joining United. He gets into scoring positions constantly, so against overmatched opponents, clearing the bar of four shots looks well within his range. |

How Manchester United go into the game
Manchester United were held 2-2 at Everton last time out but open at home, where they should have far too much. A big win is expected.
Dangerous going forward, United will look to build momentum against the newcomers.
How Sabah go into the game
Sabah reached the league phase through qualifying, a remarkable achievement. Old Trafford is a daunting stage.
Organised but heavily outgunned, Sabah will simply look to keep it respectable in Manchester.
