- How Manchester United will meet Zorya Luhansk?
The match of round 2 of the Europa League group stage between Manchester United - Zorya Luhansk is on Thursday, September 29th at Old Trafford. There is little doubt that the victory in this match belongs to Manchester United. However, do they require it and how will they be motivated? Last week, the Red Devils have returned to the path of victories after three defeats in a row.
Manchester United
Manchester United, which was originally considered one of the favorites to win the Europa League group stage, began with a defeat. The Red Devils sensationally lost to Feyenoord with a score of 0: 1. Because of this defeat, the team of Jose Mourinho was in the last place in Group A, which hardly satisfies them. So now, they need to rehabilitate themselves at home.
Zorya Luhansk
In the championship of Ukraine, Zorya is doing well. In nine games played, it won six victories, two draws and had just one defeat. It is ranked the second in the standings, losing only to Donetsk Shakhtar. A little over a week ago, Zorya sensationally beat Kiev Dynamo on their field.
Statistics
In six European games, United lost four, although their home record is great. They are unbeaten at home since 2013/2014. In 11 games played, they won 8. It is obvious that the squad of United consists of a lot of top-level players that are significantly superior to their nearest rivals. 25 Ukrainian teams have visited England since 1997/1998 and the record is W0-D6-L19. 13 defeats took place in 15 group stages. Six of 19 home wins had one goal record, so we believe that United will also make a narrow winning margin of one.
One player in the Red Devils deserves special attention. Henrikh Mkhitaryan has already made his name in Ukraine. Playing against Zorya, he scored 4 goals in three matches, so he is worth a bet to open the scoring at 6/1.
