Our prediction for this Europa League match:
Following a goalless draw with Crystal Palace, Manchester United will look to return to winning ways when they take on Twente in their Europa League opener. The Red Devils are seen as favourites to win Wednesday’s game, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. All Victor Lindelof, Tyrell Malacia, Luke Shaw, and Leny Yoro are out of contention with injuries, while both Marcus Rashford and Rasmus Hojlund return to the starting XI.
The Reds, on the other hand, rolled over Almere City 5-0 in their last league match and they are likely to adopt yet another attack-minded approach against Man Utd. Given Manchester United’s attacking potential at Old Trafford, we believe that there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. Younes Taha and Michal Sadilek should be the only absentees in the visiting team this time out.
Highlighted Player (Bruno Fernandes):
Bruno Fernandes is a Portuguese footballer who used to play for Novara before joining Udinese in a co-ownership deal in the summer of 2013. The Portuguese midfielder scored his first goal for the club in a 3-3 draw with Napoli on 7 December, 2013.
Three years later he signed a deal with Sampdoria for a fee of €7 million. Fernandes moved to Sampdoria in order to replace Roberto who reinforced Villarreal. Soriano He played 33 games for the Zebrette in the 2015/2016 Serie A campaign, scoring three goals for the club, while providing four assists for his teammates.
Fernandes is a central midfielder, but he is capable of playing as a secondary striker as well. He was born in Maia, Portugal on 8 September, 1994 and he began his youth career at Infesta. Fernandes has seven caps for Portugal U21 team and he has played 4 matches for the U23 team.
Highlighted Team (Twente):
Based in the city of Enschede, Twente is a Dutch football club that welcomes their rivals at De Grolsch Veste. The venue was opened on May 10, 1998, and the capacity of the stadium is 30,205 people. The club was founded in 1965 as a merger of Sportsclub Enschede and Enschedese Boys.
The Reds did remarkably well to win the Eredivisie title in the 2009/10 season, with the team finishing the process only one point clear of Dutch giants Ajax. As a result, Twente booked their place in the Champions League group stages. The Reds did well to collect six points in their group, but that did not help them make it to the last 16.
Twente are well known for their red jerseys, but they wear dark blue shirts when playing on the travels. The Reds take on Heracles Almelo in the Twentse Derby. Sander Boshchker is leading Twente’s all-time goal-scoring chart with 653 goals on his account.
