Manchester United vs Copenhagen Betting Tips: Latest odds, team news, preview and predictions

Manchester United and Cophenhagen will go head-to-head for a place in the Europa League semi-finals when they meet at the RheinEnergieStadion in Cologne on Monday.

The revised format of the competition due to the coronavirus pandemic means this is a one-legged affair, being played at a neutral venue.

Having lifted this trophy back in 2017, the Red Devils are 1/5 (1.20) favourites with bet365 to stay on course for another title by coming out on top in Germany.

This is the first ever European quarter-final for Stale Solbakken’s side, who are 13/1 (14.00) outsiders to pull off a shock win and priced at 23/4 (6.75) to take the match into extra-time following a deadlocked 90 minutes.

Luke Shaw, Axel Tuanzebe and Phil Jones are all ruled out through injury in what should be a stronger line-up than the side that beat LASK 2-1 in the second leg.

Available once again after missing the 3-0 victory over Istanbul Basaksehir due to suspension, Michael Santos is likely to return to lead the line for the Danish outfit.

While their opponents were among the tournament favourites right from the beginning, FCK have defied the odds at almost every stage to come this far.

Having qualified from the group stages despite scoring less than one goal a game, they soon discovered a knack for coming from behind that has served them well in the knockout stages.

A second-half equaliser in the first leg 1-1 draw with Celtic was followed by two late goals in a 3-1 away win, while they lost 1-0 in Turkey before overturning that deficit by scoring twice after the break on home turf against Basaksehir.

Although another heroic comeback seems unlikely, even money (2.00) does look like good value on Copenhagen ensuring the action unfolds after half-time for their fifth Europa League game in six given United have scored each of their last seven goals in the second period.
