Manchester United, as rough a season as they've had, are still in very good shape towards possibly winning a trophy. Ahead of the start of the quarterfinal round, United generally have the second best odds of winning the competition, behind only Athletic Bilbao, and the difference in consumer sentiment between the favorites and United is very small.

Man United Starting XI Prediction vs Rangers
Rangers will be the first team that Manchester United faces since their manager, Ruben Amorim, made the infamous "we're maybe the worst team in club history" remarks. Only someone who just recently took the job would have enough job security to make such remarks. Amorim can only say this because he knows that that he won't be sacked right after saying it. During his post-match … [Read more...] about Man United Starting XI Prediction vs Rangers
Man United Starting XI Prediction at Wolves
That incremental level of excitement that Manchester United supporters felt, after the decisive win over their noisy neighbors in the Manchester Derby, quickly dissipated. AFC Bournemouth are having a fine season, greatly exceeding expectations, but 3-0 is still 3-0. Now comes a trip to Wolverhampton Wanderers, or Wolves as they're colloquially known. Wolves are bad, so bad … [Read more...] about Man United Starting XI Prediction at Wolves
Man United Team News at Wolves: Marcus Rashford, Matthijs de Ligt
Marcus Rashford is as curious of a case as it gets. Among Manchester United players, no one is utilized in promotions and branding more. See the next two photos in this post as an example. He's the face of their franchise, their overall biggest "star," and gets paid more than £325,000-per-week for that privilege. Yet he can't even get in the matchday squad. … [Read more...] about Man United Team News at Wolves: Marcus Rashford, Matthijs de Ligt

If ever there was a time for United to really stick it to City in the Manchester Derby, it's Sunday. United have just two injury concerns, Jonny Evans and Luke Shaw, neither of which are major. United have been forced to learn to live without Luke Shaw for a long time already, and Jonny Evans is just a squad player, who is lower on the depth chart.

Man City Team News vs Man United: Mateo Kovacic, John Stones, Manuel Akanji
The Manchester Derby is upon us, and it's actually City who come into it with the worse squad fitness situation. Manchester City are still strongly favored, despite how poorly they have played lately. Injuries have played a huge role in that, but midfielder Mateo Kovacic was named to the bench in midweek, for continental competition, and he could come back into the first team … [Read more...] about Man City Team News vs Man United: Mateo Kovacic, John Stones, Manuel Akanji
Manchester United Updates: Amorim, Martinez, Shaw, Mainoo, Malacia
The Ruben Amorim era has begun at Manchester United, and unfortunately for the team and their supporters, it did not begin with a win. A visit to newly promoted and currently within the relegation zone club Ipswich Town ended in a score draw on Sunday. Considering how much smaller of a club the Tractor Boys really are, this had to have felt like a loss for United. Marcus … [Read more...] about Manchester United Updates: Amorim, Martinez, Shaw, Mainoo, Malacia
