Manchester United will face a stiff test when they take on Olympique Lyon in a Europa League quarter-final first leg clash at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais on Thursday night. The Red Devils head to France still unbeaten in the competition, while Lyon will be out to end that run and prove to Andre Onana which team is better.
The United goalkeeper inadvertently sparked a war of words with Lyon’s Nemanja Matic by implying that the Red Devils are the better side compared to OL, with Matic stating Onana is in no position to be saying such as he is the worst keeper United – his former club – have had in years.
Match Odds
Prediction
Lyon will be out to not just end United’s unbeaten run in Europe this season but get a first-ever win over the Red Devils having failed to win in any of the previous four competitive meetings against the Premier League side, losing two and drawing two.
That’s why we have our money on Manchester United to win or draw.
