Bet of the Day: Man United to keep it tight v CSKA Moscow

Red Devils back in Champions League action

Manchester United will secure top-spot in Group A with a win or a draw at home to CSKA Moscow this evening.

The Red Devils have enjoyed a fantastic group stage campaign. Jose Mourinho’s men have won four games from five and conceded just two goals along the way.

At home, they’ve been even more impressive. United have won two from two at Old Trafford without conceding a goal.

In-fact, the Manchester giants have managed a shutout in each of their last four Champions League matches on home soil.

Against CSKA Moscow this evening, the Coral News Team are expecting that sequence to continue. Coral’s Bet of the Day is Manchester United to Win to Nil at 5/4.  

United to keep it tight

United should win this match. But they may do so by resting players ahead of the weekend’s Manchester derby.

That could mean a tighter game than some expect. And with three of the Red Devils’ last four home games seeing two goals or less, there’s good recent precedent to expect a close encounter.

You can get 12/5 on Man United to Win and for there to be Under 2.5 Goals. It’s a slightly shorter 5/4 for a United win and Under 2.5 Goals.

Rashford to return

Marcus Rashford hasn’t started for United since their 1-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion last month.

Since the international break, the England ace has been forced to make do with cameo appearances from the bench. However, with Anthony Martial likely to be rested having started the last five games in succession, it could be Rashford’s time to shine.

Coral go 6/4 on the youngster to net Anytime during the contest, while it’s 9/2 that he bags the first goal.
