This is the match not to be missed, Manchester United, currently seventh in the standings of the first round of the Europa League (12 points) and Glasgow Rangers, eighth, only one point behind their opponent (11 points), will face each other this Thursday January 23, at Old Trafford in a 100% British duel, which could relegate one of the two opponents to the zone of the ranking of the teams which will play the play-off matches before the 8th finals.
The atmosphere is likely to be great this evening since the Red Devils’ den should be full to bursting. What’s more, this opposition should be of great interest to Moroccan supporters given the very probable presence on the match sheet of two players from the country, and not the least, namely right back Noussair Mazraoui and striker Hamza Igamane.
A notable debut for the two Lions
Arriving in mid-August in England, the former had an excellent start to the season, and has continued to shine, particularly since the arrival of Rùben Amorim on his bench, even if his team is currently facing an area of turbulence . Indeed, although Manchester United is well positioned in C3, it is located in the soft underbelly of the English championship ranking (thirteenth with 26 points) and is coming back from a defeat against Brighton in the Premier League (1-3).
The second, for his part, arrived this summer in Glasgow, from AS FAR, and dazzles all observers with his talent. The 22-year-old striker, with his mix of speed, athleticism and cold realism in front of goal, displays statistics worthy of the greatest, with 9 goals and 1 assist in 19 Scottish Premiership matches and even 13 goals and 3 assists in 25 matches in all competitions. His club is in good form, with a 3-0 victory over Aberdeen in the Championship and another 5-0 against Fraserburgh in the Cup, although second and 13 points behind Celtic Glasgow in the domestic championship.
This match, which promises to be very competitive, will be broadcast on BeIN Sports 1 HD Arabic, from 9 p.m.
