Manchester Utd vs PAOK Prediction & Betting Tips (7 November)

The start of United's campaign in this Europa League is, like the last few seasons in the Premier League, unspeakably sad. Three draws against Twente at Old Trafford 1-1 , against Porto on the road while the Red Devils led two goals to nothing very quickly in the game 3-3 and lastly, on the turf of José Mourinho's Fenerbahce 1-1 where players can thank the oft-maligned Onana. In the league, it's war for the Mancuniens who have achieved nothing since the start of the season 14th before the reception of Chelsea. A glimmer of hope in the darkness? In any case, this is the feeling given by the arrival of Amorim coach Sporting on the bench. Note, however, that as interim coach, Van Nistlerooy led his team to qualification for the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup by crushing Leicester 5-2.

Somewhat like Man United, PAOK Salonika's start to the campaign is not the one dreamed of by players and supporters with a small point gleaned during the reception of the Czechs in Plzen 2-2 . The other two matches ended in two defeats against the Romanians of FCSB 0-1 and at the start of the competition on the turf of Galatasaray 3-1 . In the championship, PAOK shows a much better appearance with a total of 17 points in 9 days and above all, a good 2nd place which will have defended it last weekend on the Lamia turf to follow.

Suspended against Fenerbahce, Bruno Fernandes will again be eligible for a call-up this evening. On the other hand, although he has returned to training, Lenny Yoro (ex-Lille) will be missing, as will Maguire (heroic against Porto), the young star in the middle Mainoo, the defender Malacia, left back Luke Shaw and midfielder Mason Mount . There are real offensive options at the club, with the eternal Rashford, the Argentinian crack Garnacho (2 goals in PL), the scorer Hojlund, and the Dutch recruit Zirkzee. Ineligible to play in this competition, Pavlenka will not play this evening at Old Trafford while goalkeeper Tsiftsis (substitute) is injured.

Recently removed from the group by decision of the coach, Chalov re-joined the squad unlike Sastre, still in the closet. The interesting Schwab (4 goals in the league), Despedov (1 goal, 2 assists in the league) and the Guinean international Mady Camara (2 goals in the league) will all be traveling to England.
