Man Utd vs FC Twente preview
2016/17 Europa League champions Manchester United kick-start their European adventure against FC Twente on Wednesday.
The Red Devils will be the first of the English contingent to sample the new Europa League format.
However, the assignment remains the same – win.
Erik ten Hag’s side were unable to do that over the weekend when playing out a frustrating goalless draw against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
Ten Hag said his side “ate Crystal Palace alive” as they missed a number of big chances following big wins over Southampton and Barnsley.
United had 66% possession, 15 shots and an xG of 1.86 but still weren’t able to get on the scoresheet.
He’ll hope to rectify that against Twente, who finished third in the Eredivisie last season, ahead of both AZ Alkmaar and Ajax.
Under new manager Joseph Oosting, Twente have made a decent enough start to the season having collected 11 points from a possible 18.
And they arrive in Manchester off the back of a morale-boosting 5-0 win over Almere City, although they are second bottom of the Eredivisie and have shipped 17 goals.

Man Utd vs FC Twente preview betting tips and predictions
Bruno time
Surely it’s time that Bruno Fernandes got on the scoresheet?!
The Portuguese international, 30, has had 17 attempts on goals in Manchester United’s five league matches this season – that’s more than double any of his colleagues.
The penalty taker trails only three of his teammates for touches in the opposition penalty area, while only Joshua Zirkzee and Alejandro Garnacho boast a higher xG than him (1.86). He’s also averaging a shot every 25.8 minutes – again, better than any United player.

Value
Okay, this might seem a bit of a punt but I’m going with Diogo Dalot to provide an assist on Wednesday.
Yes, Amad Diallo has created 12 chances for his teammates – but aside from the electric winger – no other Manchester United player has created more chances than Dalot in the league this season (6).
In fact, nobody can better the three big chances he’s created, while only Diallo and Fernandes have a higher xA (expected assists) than Dalot’s 0.80.
