Betting Tips: Manchester United vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

  /  autty

Wolves will be aiming to maintain their strong record against Manchester United when they travel to Old Trafford in Wednesday’s FA Cup third round replay.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s men are unbeaten in five matches against this opposition, grinding out a 0-0 draw in the original tie at Molineux.

However, they are 14/5 (3.80) outsiders with bet365 to extend that run with a first victory at this stadium since 1980.

The Red Devils ran out emphatic 4-0 winners over Norwich in Saturday’s Premier League clash, and are 19/20 (1.95) favourites to follow that up by coming out on top here.

The last two meetings between this pair have both resulted in draws, and you can get odds of 13/5 (3.60) on this one also finishing up square.

Marcus Rashford is unlikely to feature after coming off with a knock at the weekend, while Luke Shaw is also doubtful. Scott McTominay, Marcos Rojo, Paul Pogba, Axel Tuanzebe, Eric Bailly and Timothy Fosu-Mensah remain sidelined.

Diogo Jota will face a late fitness test as he struggles with a dead leg, with Willy Boly and Bruno Jordao long-term absentees.

Having put three goals past Manchester City in an impressive victory at the end of December, Wolves have struggled for cutting edge ever since – hitting the net just twice in four games.

Nevertheless, having conceded only four times in that run, they will at least feel confident of frustrating a home team that has lacked inspiration in front of goals at times this season.

Indeed, having let in just four goals in the last five meetings between the sides, the guests seem well worth backing at 3/4 (1.75) to ensure under 2.5 are scored for their third consecutive encounter with Manchester United.
