Below, we preview FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Manchester City vs. Manchester United odds, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

Manchester City vs. Manchester United picks and predictions

Prediction

Manchester City 3, Manchester United 1

Moneyline (ML)

PASS.

United (+950) has faired well on the road, but it hasn’t played well against top-3 sides. While Man U did draw Liverpool, it lost to Arsenal on the road. In both games, Man U had 1.4 or fewer expected goals.

City (-400) is just too good in the middle of the field for United to keep pace. It has also been a strong home side, so expect it to get the result. However, at -400, there’s no value in betting it.

Over/Under (O/U)

BET OVER 3.5 (-104).

United’s offense has been terrific on the road over the last few weeks. It has had at least 1.8 expected goals in 3 straight games and tallied 8 goals in the last 3.

United’s defense will have little resistance to a dynamic City attack. City has scored at least 3 goals in 4 of their last 8 games throughout all competitions. They have had at least 1.5 expected goals in every game since that Dec. 6 loss.

Both teams have attacks that are surging, so back OVER 3.5 (+100).

Bayern Munich vs. Manchester United odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Bayern Munich vs. Manchester United odds and lines, with Champions League expert picks, predcitions and best bets.

Bayern Munich welcomes Manchester United to Allianz Arena Wednesday. Kickoff in the 1st matchday for Group A is set for 3 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Bayern Munich vs. Manchester United odds, and make our best Champions League bets, picks and predictions.

Champions League is back, and this will be a heavyweight clash. Bayern sits 2nd in the Bundesliga, the top German league. It won the league last season. It also won each of the 6 Champions group stage matches it played. Bayern eventually lost in the quarterfinal 4-1 aggregate go Manchester City. Munich made the high-profile addition of F Harry Kane from Tottenham. Kane has 4 goals in 4 league matches so far this season.

Manchester United sits 13th in the English Premier League, the top England league. It has lost both of its road matches, but it is 2-0-3 this season. United earned their bid to the Champions League by finishing 3rd in the EPL last season. F Marcus Rashford led the team with 17 league goals last season. Through 5 matches, 6 players have 1 goal each. Man U was in the Europa League last season, losing 2-5 in aggregate to Sevilla in the quarterfinals.

Bayern Munich vs. Manchester United picks and predictions

Prediction

Bayern Munich 2, Manchester United 1

Moneyline (ML)

PASS.

Man U has not posed much of a threat on the road this season, and its struggle in the Europa League doesn’t showcase much reason to believe it can compete with the heavyweights of Europe. United has lost 2 straight games 3-1 and has been outscored 5-1 in its 2 road matches this season.

Against a highly competitive side like Bayern, they may struggle. Bayern hasn’t played great teams at home, but they have outscored them 5-3. Munich will have the most lethal scorer on the pitch with Kane as well and should find ways to get him open.

At home, Bayern is the better side, but at -200, they aren’t worth betting.

Over/Under (O/U)

BET UNDER 3.5 (-146).

As we saw in the AC Milan-Newcastle match Tuesday, oftentimes, unfamiliar opponents early in the Champions League do not push the pace and have urgency about their play. Bayern has scored 2 or more goals in all 4 Bundesliga matches, but it hasn’t faced an opponent of United’s caliber and could struggle to consistently see the same amount of opportunity.

Bayern’s defense has also allowed 0.7 expected goals or fewer in 3 of 4 league matches. United has allowed 10 goals in 5 matches yet has allowed more than 2 expected goals in just 2 matches. They should be able to somewhat limit Bayern as both teams settle into UCL competition.

Take UNDER 3.5 (-146).

Arsenal vs. Manchester United odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Arsenal vs. Manchester United odds and lines, with expert EPL picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

Arsenal (2 wins, 1 draw, 0 losses) welcomes Manchester United (2-0-1) to Emirates Stadium Sunday. Kickoff is set for 11:30 a.m. ET (NBC). Below, we preview BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Arsenal vs. Manchester United odds, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

Arsenal beat Manchester City 1-1 (4-1 penalty kicks) in the FA Community Shield prior to the season. It then took down Nottingham Forest 2-1 and Crystal Palace 1-1 before drawing 2-2 at home against Fulham on Tuesday. The Reds are led by F Bukayo Saka, who is tied for a team-high 2 goals so far this season. M Martin Odegaard is the captain for Arsenal.

Man U lost its lone road game so far this season. It has scored 4 goals and allowed 4 goals through the 3 matches. United’s star in the attack is F Marcus Rashford, but he has yet to score this season. Four players have scored once for Man U, which beat the Wolves 1-0 and Nottingham Forest 3-2, both at home. It lost to Tottenham 2-0 on the road on Aug. 19. They finished 3rd on the EPL table a season ago and were 8-3-8 on the road.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

Arsenal vs. Manchester United picks and predictions

Prediction

Arsenal 3, Manchester United 1

Moneyline (ML)

BET ARSENAL (-130).

Man U was not good on the road last season, and it is starting off that trend again for this season. United lost 8 of 19 road matches last season and lost their lone away game so far this year.

Arsenal is 1-1-0 at home and also showed its competence in a 1-1 (4-1 penalty kicks) win over Manchester City in the FA Community Shield. Arsenal finished 2nd in the EL last season and was a strong 14-3-2 at home. Expect it to come out and take care of business.

Back ARSENAL (-130).

Over/Under (O/U)

LEAN OVER 3.5 (+120).

With similar players on each side from last season, this game should replicate those. Last season, Arsenal beat Man U 3-2 at home then lost to it 3-1 on the road. Every game was high scoring as both Rashford and Saka are a couple of the most dominant forwards in the league.

Arsenal has scored in every game and scored 2 or more goals in 2 of 3 games. Man U has scored 4 goals in 3 games and put 3 on Nottingham Forest in its last match. Considering past trends for this matchup and both teams’ strong attacks, take OVER 3.5 (+120).

FA Cup Final: Man City vs. Manchester United odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Man City vs. Manchester United odds and lines, with soccer expert picks, predcitions and best bets.

Man City and Manchester United square off Saturday for the FA Cup Final at Wembley Stadium. Kickoff is set for 10 a.m. ET (ESPN+). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Man City vs. Manchester United odds, and make our best soccer bets, picks and predictions.

Man City, which claimed the English Premier League after a late-season surge, will look to continue its reign over English football in Saturday’s FA Cup title game. City should be at full strength for this game.

It ended the 2022-2023 season with a strong 11-4-4 (win-loss-draw) road record. It was led by F Erling Haaland, who scored 36 goals in 35 matches. City took down Chelsea, Arsenal, Bristol City, Burnley and Sheffield United in that order and by a combined 17-0 score to earn a trip to the final.

United, on the other hand, will be without F Anthony Martial, who is out with a hamstring injury. The Red Devils were led this season by F Marcus Rashford, who scored 17 goals in 35 matches. United was 8-8-3 (3 draws) on the road. It did win its final 4 games, which included 1 on the road.

Man City vs. Manchester United picks and predictions

Prediction

Man City 3, Manchester United 2

Moneyline (ML)

PASS.

United ended the season on fire, so it may be worth a play at +470.

Nonetheless, given City hasn’t had to pull its best XI on the pitch the last few weeks, it should be rested and primed to play top-tier football.

City is the best team in the world, and I would ultimately PASS as it isn’t worth a play at -190.

Over/Under (O/U)

BET OVER ALTERNATE 3.5 (+144).

The City attack is lethal. It averaged 2.47 goals per game during the Premier League. Again United, City scored 6 in a 3-goal win, and tallied 1 in a 2-1 loss. As you see, United scored multiple goals in both matches against City.

Man U scored multiple goals in 3 of its last 4 EPL matches and went Over this total in 2 of its last 3 FA Cup battles as well. It gave up 1.13 goals per game during the EPL season as well.

City’s lethal attack mixed with United’s success against the EPL champs makes the ALTERNATE OVER 3.5 (+145) a good value.

Manchester United vs. Chelsea odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s Manchester United vs. Chelsea odds and lines, with expert EPL picks, predictions and best bets.

Manchester United (21 wins, 9 losses, 6 draws) welcomes Chelsea (11-15-10) to Old Trafford Thursday. Kickoff is set for 3 p.m. ET. Below, we preview BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Manchester United vs. Chelsea odds, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

Manchester United has something to play for, needing a point in its last 2 games to secure a Champions League spot for next season. United sits 4th on the table and has scored 52 goals this season while allowing 41. United is a strong 13-1-3 at home this season. It is led by F Marcus Rashford, who has 16 goals on the season.

Chelsea has disappointed during the 2022-23 campaign. Its main weakness is offensively, averaging just 1 goal per game. F Kai Havertz leads the way with 7, but only Havertz and F Raheem Sterling have scored more than 3 goals. Chelsea is just 5-9-4 on the road this season and sits 12th on the table.

Manchester United vs. Chelsea picks and predictions

Prediction

Manchester United 1, Chelsea 0

Moneyline (ML)

PASS.

All these values seem unplayable. Chelsea has too much talent to be (+320) for even a draw, but it has lost 5 of its last 7 matches. Defeats to Wolves, Brighton, Brentford, and others highlight its struggles.

Similarly, United at (-165) is just too expensive considering it just needs 1 point here. United has also drawn or lost 3 of its last 6 EPL matches.

With that in mind, pass the moneyline.

Over/Under (O/U)

BET UNDER 2.5 (+125).

United has gone Under this total in 5 straight EPL matches and in 9 of its last 10, only topping it in a 2-2 road draw with Tottenham. It has had a clean sheet in 6 of them and scored multiple goals in just 4. It has allowed 2 goals in its last 5 EPL matches, and Chelsea’s offense won’t be the side to consistently pepper it with shots.

Chelsea has scored 7 goals in its last 9 matches. It has gone Under in 5 of its last 9 despite having a struggling defense over the past month. It allows just 1.17 goals per game and has strong defenders, so expect a low-scoring affair.

Take the UNDER 2.5 (+125).

Tottenham Hotspur vs. Manchester United odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s Tottenham Hotspur vs. Manchester United odds and lines, with expert EPL picks, predictions and best bets.

In English Premier League Matchday 33 play on Thursday, Tottenham Hotspur (16 wins, 5 draws, 11 losses) hosts Manchester United (18 wins, 5 draws, 7 losses). Kickoff at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in North London is scheduled for 3:15 p.m. ET (Peacock).  Below, we preview BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Tottenham Hotspur vs. Manchester United odds, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

Tottenham suffered a 6-1 setback against Newcastle United last time out on Sunday, which followed a 3-2 loss against AFC Bournemouth on its home pitch on April 15. The Spurs have won just once in the last 5 matches, going 1-2-2 during the span. Despite some struggles, Tottenham is still plus-7 in goal differential overall.

Manchester United are coming off a scoreless draw against Brighton in an FA Cup battle, and that follows up a 3-0 setback against Sevilla from La Liga in a Europa League battle.

As far as the EPL is concerned, ManU has been on fire, winning 3 games with a draw in the last 4 outings. ManU has also won 4 straight battles against Tottenham across all competitions. In addition, ManU has kept a clean sheet in 6 of the last 8 matches in EPL play.

Tottenham Hotspur vs. Manchester United picks and predictions

Prediction

Manchester United 2, Tottenham Hotspur 0

Moneyline (ML)

MANCHESTER UNITED (+140) is a strong play on the road in this mid-week EPL clash.

The Red Devils have won 4 straight meetings with Tottenham (+175), and ManU has kept a clean sheet in 6 of the last 8 matches in EPL play. It has also won 4 of the last 5 trips to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with a draw on June 19, 2020.

One concern for ManU is the fitness of midfielder Bruno Fernandes, who is doubtful to play. He was seen with a walking boot and crutches recently.

Over/Under (O/U)

UNDER 2.5 (+115) might be the best play on the board at plus-money.

While the Spurs have cashed the Over 2.5 goals in 5 of the last 6 EPL matches, ManU has cashed the Under 2.5 goals in 5 consecutive matches. Tottenham will have a difficult time penetrating the net against ManU, which has 3 straight clean sheets in EPL play.

Manchester United vs. Brentford odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Manchester United vs. Brentford odds and lines, with expert EPL picks, predictions and best bets.

Manchester United (15 wins, 7 losses, 5 draws) welcomes Brentford (10-5-13) to Old Trafford Wednesday. Kickoff is set for 3 p.m. ET. Below, we preview BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Manchester United vs. Brentford odds, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

Manchester United has been one of the EPL’s best home teams this season, posting a 9-1-3 record at home. However, they lost 2-0 on Sunday to Newcastle and have been struggling of late, posting a 0-2-1 record in their last 3 league games. They are led by star F Marcus Rashford, who has scored 14 goals in 27 games this season.

Brentford beat Man U 4-0 last Aug. 13. They are just 3-4-7 on the road this season though. In total, they have scored 46 goals and allowed 37, sitting in 7th place in the league. Brentford has drawn 4 of their last 7 matches and is 1-1-1 in their last 3 road games. They are led by F Ivan Toney, who has 17 goals in 26 starts.

Manchester United vs. Brentford picks and predictions

Prediction

Manchester United 1, Brentford 1

Moneyline (ML)

SPRINKLE DRAW (+310).

Man U is set to have many key players sidelined. M Casemiro will still be suspended. M Christian Eriksen is out, and M Anthony Martial is doubtful. That’s going to be quite a bit to overcome, especially having not played at the top of their game lately.

In their last 3 league matches, Man U has had 2 fewer expected goals twice and even had fewer in their 0-0 draw with Southampton as well. They cannot be trusted to get a result. Meanwhile, Brentford has drawn 5 of their last 10 league games.

Given their ability to keep games close with top opponents like Arsenal, Chelsea, and Tottenham, back the DRAW (+310) as they should be able to make this a close battle.

Over/Under (O/U)

BET UNDER 2.5 (+105).

Brentford is not an attack-heavy side. They have gone Under in 3 of their last 4 matches and Under in 5 of their last 7. They are allowing just 1.32 goals per game as well.

Man U has gone Under in 3 of their last 4 games throughout all competitions as well. They have gone Under in 2 of their last 3 league matches.

Without 2 key attacking midfielders, they may struggle to produce. In their last 3 EPL games, Man U hasn’t had more than one expected goal and hasn’t scored in league play since Feb. 19. Ultimately, take the UNDER 2.5 (+105), especially considering the plus-money value.

FA Cup: Fulham vs. Manchester United odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Fulham vs. Manchester United odds and lines, with expert FA Cup picks, predictions and best bets.

Manchester United welcomes Fulham to Old Trafford Sunday for an FA Cup quarterfinal. Kickoff is set for 12:30 p.m. ET (ESPN+). Below, we preview Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Fulham vs. Manchester United odds, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

Manchester United beat West Ham United 3-1 on March 1 in the Round of 16 to advance while Fulham defeated Leeds United 2-0 on Feb. 28 to advance. United beat Fulham 2-1 in league play on Nov. 13.

United has been solid as of late, surging up the EPL table to 3rd place. They are coming off a 1-0 road victory over Betis in the Europa League. United has just 1 home loss in league play this season. They are 9-1-3 (3 draws) at home this season.

Fulham, which sits 9th in the EPL, is 5-6-2 on the road this season in league play. They have won 4 of their last 7 matches throughout all competitions though and are 2-1-0 in their last 3 road matches. Fulham is led by F Aleksandar Mitrovic, who has 11 goals on the season. They also have USMNT D Tim Ream, who has recorded 27 starts.

Fulham vs. Manchester United picks and predictions

Prediction

Manchester United 3, Fulham 1

Moneyline (ML)

PASS.

United has been too hot this season, especially these last few months, to suggest any other moneyline play, but at -230, there’s no value in betting the home side to win outright.

They have won 11 of their last 15 games across all competitions, only losing to Liverpool while drawing Southampton, Leeds United, and Barcelona. Two of those draws were at home.

Over/Under (O/U)

BET OVER 2.5 (-150).

The juice is there, but it is worth taking regardless. Untied has scored at least 2 goals on their own in 13 of their last 16 games. Against Fulham earlier in the season, they had 2.5 expected goals yet only netted 2 of them. While Ream has been a steady force for Fulham, he is 35 years old and may not fair well against a player like F Marcus Rashford, who has 14 goals in 24 starts.

United has gone Over this in 3 of its last 5 matches, topping 3.5 goals as well in those 3. Fulham has gone Over this total in their last 2 and has allowed at least 2 expected goals in 3 of their last 4 EPL matches. It is allowing 1.37 goals per game while scoring 1.41.

Ultimately, back the OVER 2.5 (-150).

Analyzing Sunday’s Liverpool vs. Manchester United odds and lines, with EPL expert picks, predictions and best bets.

Liverpool (11 wins, 7 losses, 6 draws) welcomes Manchester United (15-5-4) to Anfield Sunday. Kickoff is set for 11:30 a.m. ET. Below, we preview Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Liverpool vs. Manchester United odds, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

With the Manchester City win over Newcastle Saturday, Man U is now 9 points out of 2nd place (having played 2 fewer games than City). United has scored 41 goals and allowed 28 in 24 matches. United is led by the surging F Marcus Rashford, who has 14 goals in 22 starts.

Liverpool, who has dropped off since a 2nd-place finish last season, sit 6th in the league and have scored 40 goals and allowed 28. Losing F Sadio Mane in the offseason was disruptive for this team. They are led by F Mohamed Salah, who has 9 goals and 5 assists this season.

SPRINKLE DRAW (+265).

Liverpool will be facing a competent side, and while they have played well at home, they still have 3 draws in 12 matches. They lost 2-1 to Man U Aug. 22, 2022, but the sides were within 0.5 expected goals of each other.

Man U has 2 draws in 12 road matches but have drawn 2 of their last 7 throughout all competitions. They are red hot, having won 9 of their last 11 but are facing one of the most complete sides in the EPL.

Considering the competitive nature and similar level of play, put a small unit on the DRAW (+265).

Over/Under (O/U)

BET UNDER 2.5 (+130).

Liverpool has gone Under in 4 of their last 5 games throughout all competitions and in their last 4 league matches. They are 1-5 O/U in their last 6 EPL matches.

Without Mane, the Liverpool attack has taken a huge hit this season. They averaged 2.47 goals per game last season and are down to just 1.67. They also allow just 1.17 per game, so the defense has remained elite.

Man U has scored 2 or more goals in just 5 of 12 road matches this season, and against an elite defense, they should struggle to find opportunity. Also, they allow just 1.17 per game as well, so they have an elite backline.

Ultimately, back the UNDER 2.5 (+130).

Manchester United vs. Leeds United picks and predictions

Prediction

Manchester United 3, Leeds United 1

Moneyline (ML)

PASS.

Man U has been so dominant at home, winning their last 6 EPL home matches, that the moneyline isn’t worth playing. On the other side, Leeds just fired their manager, Jesse Marsch, and isn’t worth taking a small play on.

Ultimately, these odds are justified, but just overall unplayable.

Over/Under (O/U)

BET OVER 2.5 (-155).

The value here isn’t great, so I also wouldn’t hate the reasoning to suggest an Over 3.5 (+155).

Man U has scored at least 2 goals in their last 10 home matches throughout all competitions. They have scored at least 3 goals in 2 of their last 4 league games and at least 2 in all 4. They have gone Over 2.5 in all 4 of those. They have gone Over in 7 of 10 home matches.

Leeds, on the other hand, has a flawed defense yet has scored a goal in 6 of their 10 road matches. They have also allowed at least 2 goals in 6 of those 10.

The combination of the electric Man U attack, struggling Leeds defense and reasonably competent Leeds attack, back the OVER 2.5 (-155) and consider the Over 3.5 (+155).
