Man Utd vs PSV Preview, Team News, Line-Up, Betting Tips & Predicted Score
Manchester United take on PSV Eindhoven at Old Trafford tonight. Here’s a preview with team news, likely line-up, betting tips and predicted score.
Manchester United will look to seal qualification to the last 16 of the Champions League when they take on PSV Eindhoven at Old Trafford tonight.
United head into the game sitting top of Group B on seven points after beating CSKA Moscow three weeks ago so victory tonight would ensure safe passage to the knockout phase of the competition with a game to spare.
However, the group is finely poised with just three points separating United from bottom-placed CSKA so tonight’s game could prove to be pivotal in who progresses to the last 16.
Louis van Gaal’s men will be out for revenge after losing 2-1 to PSV in the reverse fixture back in September but the Dutch outfit arrive at Old Trafford in fine form having not lost in their last 10 domestic games, so United know it’s going to be a tricky test.

Team news
United have been boosted with the news that Wayne Rooney and Anthony Martial are both fit to return after missing Saturday’s 2-1 win at Watford.
Rooney was ill while Martial picked up a foot injury while away with the France squad but both players are now back in full training and should start tonight.
Marouane Fellaini is also back in contention but Michael Carrick remains sidelined with his own foot injury so he joins Luke Shaw and Antonio Valencia on the treatment table.
Ander Herrera and Phil Jones will also miss the game after being forced off with minor knocks at Vicarage Road at the weekend but Memphis Depay could start against his former side after scoring the opening goal against Watford last time out.
As for PSV, they’ll be without Jetro Willems and Menno Koch due to knee injuries while Maxime Lestienne is also a doubt for the game.

Predicted Score
Man Utd 2-0 PSV Eindhoven: United have an excellent home record in the Champions League and should be in confident mood after picking up another victory at the weekend. So despite some injury problems, I think we’ll see the home side ease to victory tonight.
Betting Tips
United are the 1/2 favourites to win the game but Football-Talk can get you enhanced odds of 4/1 on a home victory tonight if you click here. My prediction of 2-0 is on offer at 6/1 and I also like the look of Anthony Martial opening the scoring at odds of 7/2. If you combined those two bets in a score-cast then we get very tempting odds of 14/1.
