Manchester United vs FC Sheriff Prediction and Betting Tips | 27th October 2022

The UEFA Europa League returns to the fold with another set of matches this week as FC Sheriff lock horns with Erik ten Hag's Manchester United side at Old Trafford on Thursday.

Manchester United vs FC Sheriff Preview

FC Sheriff are currently at the top of the Moldovan National Division and have stepped up to the plate on the domestic front this season. The away side suffered a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Petrocub last week and will need to work hard to bounce back in this fixture.

Manchester United, on the other hand, are in sixth place in the Premier League table at the moment and have improved after a slow start to their campaign. The Red Devils played out a 1-1 draw against Chelsea in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this week.
