Manchester United v Rangers is scheduled to kick off at Old Trafford at 8pm on Thursday with live televised coverage available in the UK via TNT Sports 1. Live radio coverage is also available on BBC Radio 5 Live.

Europa League Recap

Both Manchester United and Rangers remain right in contention for the Europa League last-16 and head into matchday seven occupying two of the top eight places in the tournament’s league stage. Manchester United failed to win any of their first three matches in the competition but have bounced back to win three straight games and now sit seventh with 12 points from six matches. Rangers are one position and one point behind Thursday’s hosts having taken 11 points from their six matches so far. The Scottish giants are unbeaten in the competition at Ibrox but have won just one of their three away fixtures so far.

Form

Manchester United lost 3-1 at home to Brighton & Hove Albion last weekend, prompting manager Ruben Amorim to label the current crop of Red Devils as “maybe the worst ever”. Manchester United are enduring a miserable season domestically and head into Thursday's Europa League tie languishing in 13th in the Premier League table. The Red Devils have won one of their last eight matches in all competitions.

Rangers are second in the Scottish Premiership but seem helpless in their attempts to thwart a fourth straight title for fierce rivals Celtic. Another league title for Celtic would see them equal Rangers’ record of 55 Scottish Premiership titles. Rangers are currently on a six-game unbeaten run in all competitions and have lost just one of their last 19 matches.

Manchester United v Rangers: Head-to-Head

Manchester United have an excellent record against Rangers, winning three and drawing one of four previous meetings without conceding a single goal. Manchester United won 1-0 when the sides last met at Ibrox in November 2010 thanks to a late Wayne Rooney penalty. The last meeting between the sides at Old Trafford ended 0-0 two months earlier.

Betting.Bet Betting Tips

Rangers actually arrive in Manchester as the side in better form but perhaps on blind faith alone, we’re tipping Manchester United to take all three points from this. At 10/21, they are certainly very back-able with Ladbrokes.

A lot has been made of Manchester United’s struggles in scoring goals but recently their problems have been at the other end of the pitch. Ruben Amorim’s side have failed to keep a single clean sheet in their last twelve matches in all competitions and have just one shutout in six Europa League matches so far. Meanwhile, Rangers have not kept a clean sheet away from Ibrox since winning 3-0 at Ross County in early December. Both teams to score could be a wise pick at 8/11 whilst over 2.5 match goals looks rock-solid at 4/7.

Hamza Igmane has already scored four times in this season’s Europa League and heads to Old Trafford in excellent goal scoring form. The Morrocan has scored seven goals in his side’s last six Scottish Premiership fixtures and at 5/2 he is our pick in the anytime goalscorer market.

Amad Diallo and Bruno Fernandes have accounted for Manchester United’s last six goals scored in all competitions and whilst both will prove popular in Thursday's various goalscorer markets, we’re giving the edge to penalty taker Bruno Fernandes. The Manchester United captain is 5/1 to score first or 6/4 to score at any time.
