Manchester United vs Roma predicted formations

Manchester United host Roma at Old Trafford on Tuesday, November 3 (3:00 PM ET / 2:00 PM CT / 12:00 PM PT).

Manchester United and Roma head into this one with no fresh injury concerns flagged for either squad, so both sides should be close to full strength. Bruno Fernandes, who has a goal and 7 chances created from 237 minutes this campaign, looks the likely creative focal point for United, with Matheus Cunha and Joshua Zirkzee both in contention after scoring in their limited minutes so far. Roma’s team news centers on Donyell Malen, who has 3 goals and 2 assists from 13 shots in 236 minutes — by far their most involved attacker through 3 games this season.

    Manchester United vs Roma Prediction

    Our Signal model has this finishing 2-1 to Manchester United. Home advantage and United’s knack for scoring across multiple players — Fernandes, Cunha, Zirkzee and Šeško have all found the net already this season — should be enough to see off a Roma side that have more points (4 to 3) but have also shown they can be breached, conceding 4 goals in a 3-4 home loss to Real Madrid. Expect goals at both ends, with Malen a threat throughout, before United’s greater firepower at Old Trafford tips it late.
