Galatasaray vs Manchester United Prediction

In one of the most exciting match-ups on Matchday 5 of the Champions League, Erik ten Hag’s Red Devils head to Turkey knowing anything other than three points would be catastrophic for their hopes of making the knockout stage.

Manchester United sit bottom of the group with just three points ahead of their final two games, but Galatasary aren’t in much of a better position themselves – sitting in third on four points, behind Copenhagen on goal difference.

Bayern Munich have already confirmed their fate as top seed from Group A and there’s a decent chance Thomas Tuchel could field a weakened side in their final Matchday 6 clash in Manchester.

In the reverse fixture between Galatasaray and United, the Turks stunned Old Trafford with a 3-2 win thanks to goals from Wilfried Zaha, Kerem Akturkoglu and Mauro Icardi.

We at SportsLens expect this one to be a close end-to-end encounter, but with United in impressive form and needing victory it would be no surprise to see the visitors come away with a huge three points.

Prediction: Galatasaray 1-2 Manchester United

Galatasaray vs Manchester United Betting Tip 1: Manchester United To Win @ 29/20

There is no margin for error on Wednesday evening in Istanbul and Erik ten Hag knows anything other than three points puts his side in a really tricky situation to qualify for the next stage of the competition.

Luckily for him, United are in fine form. They’re one of the hottest teams in the Premier League at the minute, winning five of their last six outings and look to be rapidly improving.

Results haven’t gone their way in the Champions League so far this season, with a lot of bad luck on the way. Marcus Rashford’s controversial first half sending off arguably cost them the game in Copenhagen.

Another red card for Casemiro prevented United from getting a result against Galatasaray at home. This time around, if they’re disciplined and continue the way they’ve played in recent weeks it should be a routine win.

This is why we at SportsLens are backing Manchester United to reign victorious over Galatasaray, priced at 29/20 by the majority of top UK bookmakers.

Galatasaray vs Manchester United Betting Tip 2: Rasmus Hojlund Anytime Goalscorer @ 15/8

Ten Hag has confirmed that Danish youngster Rasmus Hojlund is available for Wednesday’s match after missing a number of weeks with a muscle strain – so he’ll be fresh and raring to go in Turkey.

Hojlund has set the European stage alight this season and currently leads the way as the Champions League top scorer with five goals to his name, two of which came against Galatasaray.

He loves playing in this competition and has proved to be a breath of fresh air when leading the line for United so far, displaying a remarkable level of maturity, hunger and desire – something this side has lacked for a long time.

Backing Hojlund to score anytime vs Galatasaray at 15/8 money looks a sold selection, or you could combine it with United to win for a 7/2 multiple.
