Man United Form

Ruben Amorim makes his Old Trafford debut as Man United manager on Thursday. He is tasked with improving United’s position of 15th in the Europa League after three draws and a win.

United ended their run of three Europa League draws with a 2-0 home victory over PAOK. The Manchester club then won their fourth home game in five with a comfortable 3-0 win against Leicester.

Amorim couldn’t make a winning start in his new role on Sunday as United were frustrated in a 1-1 draw at Ipswich. Marcus Rashford scored in the first minute but United couldn’t utilise their 1.27 XG and conceded before half time.

Man United News

Centre-back Lisandro Martinez is an injury doubt.

Defensive trio Harry Maguire, Victor Lindelöf and Leny Yoro are injured and won’t return until December.

Bodo/Glimt Form

Bodo/Glimt return to Europa League action on Thursday after some patchy recent form. The Norwegian outfit are winless in six of their last eight in all competitions.

One of Bodo/Glimt’s rare recent wins was a 2-1 triumph at Sporting Braga in the Europa League. That result preceded a four-match winless run, including a shock 2-1 home loss to Qarabag.

Kjetil Knutsen’s team won for the first time in November on Saturday after beating Odd 2-0. Patrick Berg and Jens Petter Hauge got the goals as Glimt dominated with 69% possession.

Bodo/Glimt News

Forwards Daniel Bassi and Samuel Burakovsky are expected to miss out on Thursday with injuries.

Midfield pair Gaute Vetti and Syver Skeide are also sidelined through injury here.

Verdict

Man Utd v Bodo/Glimt

Man United have tonnes of quality and can put goals past a leaky Bodo/Glimt side. Amorim’s side can control this match and a home handicap looks good value in the Europa League.
