Manchester United vs Bodø/Glimt: Match preview, what to expect & key players

After a disappointing draw against Ipswich Town, new manager Ruben Amorim will be aiming for his first win at Manchester United when he hosts Bodo/Glimt at Old Trafford. Despite facing difficulties in terms of personnel, especially the defense without Lisandro Martinez and Harry Maguire, MU is still rated higher in terms of squad quality and experience in European competition.

Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt have been in fine form in the Europa League but will face a tough challenge at Old Trafford. Despite missing some key players, such as Omar Elabdellaoui and Syver Skeide, Bodo/Glimt still have dangerous strikers like Amahl Pellegrino and Sheraldo Becker who can cause problems for the United defence.

Despite their personnel challenges, Manchester United have more than enough weapons to beat Bodo/Glimt. Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes will be key players in deciding this match, while Rasmus Højlund could make his mark with his first goal at Old Trafford.

With superior squad quality and home advantage, MU is likely to win 2-0, an important victory for Amorim to get the first victory of his tenure. Bodo/Glimt will have to show their mettle to be able to make a surprise, but with the lack of force and facing a big team like MU, victory will probably still be in the hands of the home team.

Score prediction: Manchester United 3-0 Bodo/Glimt
