Porto v Manchester United Match Preview
Porto and Manchester United will collide in the Estadio de Dragao for their second Europa League group phase game.
The hosts will have been smarting after going down 3-2 to Bodo Glimt on Matchday 1, but their problems pale into insignificance compared to United.
Yes, Erik ten Hag may have the confidence of the board for now, but a disappointing 1-1 draw with FC Twente was followed last weekend with a humiliating 3-0 reverse against Tottenham in the Premier League.
United and Porto are no strangers to each other, and they are of course, two teams both previously managed by the self-proclaimed “Special One” Jose Mourinho.
But who will come out on top? I have run through the markets and selected a couple of Porto v Manchester United betting tips for you to salivate over.
Porto and Manchester United to play out entertaining draw
I don’t think it can get much worse for Manchester United as they have hit rock bottom.
The lack of press and shape against Tottenham was astounding and pundits were decrying how the performance was “disgusting” and “embarrassing”.
Two words you wouldn’t have associated with United in the past, and Ten Hag seems to be clinging on by his fingernails.
Anyway, the next assignment is Porto, and they were very shaky against Bodo Glimit which was one of the surprises from Matchday 1.
In terms of the head-to-head, United edge it with Porto, but two of the past three clashes have ended in a share of the points.
I can’t make a convincing case for either side to win, so for the first of my Porto v Manchester United betting tips, I’m going for a draw which could be entertaining & BTTS. Paddy Power has obliged with odds of 16/5.
Christian Eriksen to come to United’s rescue
Despite his years of experience, Christian Eriksen has been reduced at times to a bit-part role.
Well, that is certainly the case for the United midfielder in the Premier League.
Against his former employers Tottenham last weekend, the Dane was poor with his delivery from set-pieces, but he has already made his mark in the Europa League, scoring with a superb strike against FC Twente.
In the Europa League, Eriksen is more likely to play a prominent part, and I fancy him to get on the scoresheet.
To round off my Porto v Manchester United betting tips, I think Eriksen could grab a vital equaliser for the Red Devils. If that sounds up your street, William Hill is offering an eye-catching price of 12/1 for Eriksen to score the last goal of the game.
