Europa League, played Thursday, November 28th, 2024
Here is our Man Utd v Bodo/Glimt tip and game preview. Based on our detailed analysis of statistics listed below and other factors, we predicted both teams to score in this game, over 2.5 goals, and a Man Utd home win. Our confidence in this pick was moderate relative to other picks.
Manchester United were held to a 1-1 draw away from home at Ipswich Town in the Premier League action over the weekend but nevertheless that result extended the Red Devils' unbeaten run in all competitions to five games overall.
Bodo/Glimt returned to winning ways in the Norwegian top flight as they registered a solid 2-0 win on the road at Odd BK which ended a previous four-game winless run in all competitions.
Manchester United have collected recent important wins against Leicester City 5-2 at home in the domestic League Cup, a 2-0 home win against Greek side PAOK in the Europa League along with a Premier League 3-0 home win over Leicester City again at Old Trafford.
Indeed, results overall have been pretty promising for United in recent times as the hosts have slipped to just two defeats within their previous 15 games overall in all competitions, while picking up six wins in the process but too many draws have left the fans disappointed as the hosts have failed to press on this season.
The draw has featured heavily in this season's Europa League campaign as well, as three out of United's four games to date in this competition have produced stalemates, each of which have resulted in both teams scoring - indeed, seven of Manchester United's last 10 games have seen both teams hit the back of the net.
Bodo/Glimt managed to halt a dismal four-game winless run in all competitions over the weekend when the visitors recorded a 2-0 win away from home at Odd BK and the Norwegian outfit will be looking for more of the same here at Old Trafford on Thursday night.
However, this may be easier said than done though as Kjetil Knutsen's Bodo/Glimt side have managed to pick up just two wins from their last eight matches in all competitions which included an impressive 2-1 win away from home at Sporting Braga in the Europa League.
A 2-1 loss at home to Azerbaijan outfit Qarabag though on Matchday 4 of this competition suggests this upcoming trip to Old Trafford could be a tricky one despite Bodo/Glimt losing just once so far in this season's Europa League campaign.
Goals for both teams looks to have a decent chance of unfolding at Old Trafford though as six out of Bodo/Glimt's last 10 matches in all competitions have also resulted in both teams scoring.
Manchester United v Bodo/Glimt Verdict
Manchester United are expected to win this upcoming Europa League tie under new boss Ruben Amorim but the prospect of both teams scoring here at Old Trafford looks to be an inviting one especially as the odds are so good.
Therefore, our main bet will be BTTS Yes @ 1.95

Correct Score: Manchester Utd 2-1 @ 9.50
