Manchester United Favourites to Win at Home on Thursday
Published on September 28th, 2016 8:33 pm ESTManchester United will look to shrug off a number of disappointing losses on Thursday when they play host to Zorya in Europa League Group Stage action.
Man Utd got their Europa League group stage results off to an inauspicious start after they lost to Feyenoord. Thanks to that result, Manchester United currently sits last in their group, behind Feyenoord, Fenerbahce and Zorya.
The good news for Man Utd is that they rebounded back into form last weekend after they annihilated the defending EPL champions from Leicester City 4-1. Paul Pogba turned in his best performance as a member of Man Utd in the match, as the team seemed to get a spark after Wayne Rooney was left on the bench for most of the match. Manchester United looked overwhelming in that contest, and they will be looking to carry the momentum forward into their match against Zorya on Thursday.

After a very strong start to the season, Manchester United has sagged over the past 4-5 weeks though it appears as though they might be returning to form. Don't expect Zorya to offer up too much resistance on Thursday.
