Manchester United look up against it to overturn the 3-1 first-leg deficit when they take on Manchester City in Wednesday’s Carabao Cup semi-final.
Marcus Rashford kept the Red Devils’ slim hopes of progression alive by scoring their only goal in the first leg at Old Trafford, although he will miss this game to a long-term back injury.
His absence will place extra pressure on Anthony Martial, who is priced at a lengthy 7/1 (8.00) to open the scoring at the Etihad Stadium.
On target in each of his last two visits to this ground, the Frenchman certainly looks like his depleted side’s best anytime bet at 7/4 (2.75) after scoring 12 times in all competitions so far this season.
Mason Greenwood is the only other player in the squad to have hit double figures this campaign, and is priced at 10/3 (4.33) to enhance his growing reputation even further with a big goal here.
Without a club goal since August, Daniel James certainly doesn’t hold much appeal at 5/1 (6.00) anytime odds in what should be a difficult game for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team.
In contrast, Pep Guardiola is blessed with an embarrassment of attacking riches, with Sergio Aguero the jewel in the crown.
GettyThe Argentina international has scored eight times in his last eight appearances to make it 21 goals in just 17 starts this season, and is a clear 11/4 (3.75) favourite to break the deadlock and at 8/13 (1.62) to strike anytime.
Gabriel Jesus’ own record of 16 goals in 19 starts this campaign is almost equally impressive, and he can be backed at 8/11 (1.73) to add to that tally here.
However, those looking for better value may want to look at the 6/4 (2.50) anytime price for Bernardo Silva, who scored for the second match in four at the weekend and has fired past United in two of the last three meetings.
