“Manchester United. I still can’t work them out.”
That’s how I started last week’s preview. Since then the Red Devils have thrown away two leads in a 3-3 draw with Everton and stuttered and stumbled to an extra-time win against West Ham in the FA Cup.
Don’t get me wrong, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side are second in the Premier League table for a reason, and they’re playing some of the best football at Old Trafford since Sir Alex Ferguson left.
But I just wish I knew where I stood with them. Against West Brom, are they going to hit top gear like they did in their record-equalling 9-0 win over Southampton? Or will we see a repeat of the horror show that was their loss to bottom-side Sheffield United last month?
He was used as a substitute in United last game in the cup, I expect him to return to the number nine position in this one.
I’m struggling to find much value elsewhere which is usually the case for one-sided fixtures. If you are after a Hollywood bet though then how about Matheus Pereira to score first at 16/1 with BoyleSports.
The Brazilian has twice as many goals as the next highest scorer for the Baggies this season and is on penalty and free-kick duties too. If anybody was to break the deadlock for the hosts, it’d be him.
Score prediction: West Brom 0-2 Man Utd
