Pundit Predictions: Who starts v Bodo/Glimt?

Ruben Amorim will stride out at Old Trafford for the very first time as our new head coach on Thursday evening as we host Bodo/Glimt in the UEFA Europa League.

The 20:00 GMT kick-off will be a special occasion as a new era begins at the Theatre of Dreams, and after a 1-1 draw at Ipswich Town, fans will be debating who the boss will elect to represent the Reds on this European night.

Ahead of the match — our first-ever competitive meeting with Norwegian opposition — Reds legends Wes Brown and John O’Shea have been playing our United Predictions game. You can join them in selecting Ruben’s starting XI, the scoreline, first goalscorer and your Man of the Match, and you’ll have the chance to win great prizes if you do.

After Marcus Rashford became the first goalscorer of the Amorim era, Wes is tipping the Wythenshawe-born striker to put United ahead again in midweek. Who’s your pick?

WES BROWN’S PREDICTIONS

United XI
Onana
Mazraoui
De Ligt
Shaw
Amad
Mainoo
Ugarte
Dalot
Fernandes
Rashford
Garnacho

First scorer: Rashford
Final score: 2-0
Man of the Match: Amad

Ruben Amorim confirmed this week that Lisandro Martinez is available for selection again after injury. Will he come straight back into the team? Wes doesn’t think so, electing for a back three of Noussair Mazraoui, Matthijs De Ligt and Luke Shaw.

Fellow United legend and pundit O’Shea has elected for a similar but not identical team selection…
