Manchester United vs Rangers Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The loser of this game could move out of automatic qualification spots.
The UEFA Europa League will return to the Theatre of Dreams as Manchester United welcome Rangers for their seventh league phase fixture. United have been solid in the Europa League under their new manager and have already secured two wins in two games. Moreover, if the Red Devils manage to win this game, Ruben Amorim will become only the third manager to win all of his opening three games in major European competitions alongside Sir Matt Busby and Sir Alex Ferguson.
Rangers on the other hand will be eyeing revenge having failed to secure a single win against United in five previous meetings. With 11 points from three wins and two draws, they are just one point behind the English giants in the standings. The Light Blues come into this game on the back of three wins in their last five outings. They have scored 13 goals, the third highest in the competition and will look to capitalize on their chances.
