Command Analysis

Viktoria Plzen

Czech Republic

Current form

Viktoria can put the interim results of its performance in the Europa League to its credit. In five rounds, it managed to score nine points, with which the Czech team occupies 13th place in the table. In the three starting rounds, the “red-blues” played a draw, after which they won two matches with the same score of 2:1 over Real Sociedad and Dynamo Kyiv. Taking into account their performance in the national championship, Miroslav Koubek’s team is currently on an unbeaten streak of seven matches. Viktoria occupies second place in the national championship, but is 10 points behind the leading Slavia Prague.

Valenta and Vigele will not play today due to injuries. In addition, there is a significant loss in attack. Ghanaian striker Adu will not be able to play due to visa problems.

Manchester United

England

Current form

Manchester United are approaching the upcoming game on the back of two defeats in the Premier League. The game seemed to have stabilized with the arrival of Ruben Amorim, but there are still many problems. The Red Devils were unable to do anything against Arsenal (0:2) away from home, after which they lost to Nottingham Forest (2:3) at home. The team occupies a modest 13th place in the Premier League standings. In the Europa League, the Mancunians have nine points after five rounds and an intermediate 12th position. After three draws in a row, Manchester United won against PAOK (2:0) and Bodo-Glimt (3:2).

Disqualifications and injuries

Gore, Lindelof, Evans and Shaw will not play today due to injuries.

Interesting trends for betting

Four of Manchester United last five matches have ended in a draw at half-time
In three of Manchester United previous five matches, both teams have scored goals

Probable line-up: Onana - Mazraoui, de Ligt, Martinez - Anthony, Ugarte, Fernandes, Malacia - Mount, Garnacho - Hoilund.

Tip and bets

1.73both will score

As the recent Premier League matches have shown, the problems, especially in defense, have not disappeared for the Mancunians. In the last five matches, they have only managed to keep a clean sheet against Everton. Victoria is on the move now, and will clearly have a chance to score against Manchester United on their home field. At the same time, the Red Devils are doing well in attack, and in the last ten matches in all tournaments, they have failed to score only against Arsenal. There is a high probability that today there will be an exchange of goals.

Our prediction is both teams to score at odds of 1.73

4.4draw

Bet on the outcome

In the current Europa League, Viktoria and Manchester United have drawn three times each. Considering the guests' far from optimal form, we believe that the Czechs can count on at least one point.

The second bet is a draw with odds of 4.40

Bet on the first half

Four of Manchester United previous five matches have ended in a draw at half-time. We think the rivals will be watching each other closely and will not find out who is the stronger in the opening 45 minutes.

Forecast - draw in the first half with odds of 2.55
