FCSB and Manchester United are both in the top eight teams in the Europa League, but it is possible that only a winner will find their place in the 1/8 final, while the eventual losers could play one additional round. 

FCSB played surprisingly well in the Europa League this season. They won 14 points in seven matches. In the Romanian league, FCSB is playing well, too, as they are sharing the top position on the table with U. Cluj. FCSB have continued with good results since the winter break, too, as they have been unbeaten in those three matches. Last weekend, FCSB won 1-0 on the road against UTA Arad. The guests doubled the home team's xG and secured another victory. 

Manchester United have another bad Premier League season, but they are playing well in the Europa League and maybe that competition is Manchester United's route to success. Ruben Amorim's team are playing well lately as they lost only one of the last six matches. In the previous game, Manchester United won 1-0 on the road against Fulham. The guests created xG of only 0.25 in that match but still found a way to pick up all three points. 

FCSB vs Manchester United pick: Both teams to score - yes

FCSB scored five goals in three matches since the winter break. On the other hand, Manchester United scored at least one goal in each of the previous six games. Both teams have a lot to fight for on Thursday, so we should expect both teams to score at least once.
