Yet again, I'm here doing a preview for a Manchester United match, and saying that they must get a result to ensure that this season doesn't go from bad, to 'torch the place and start from scratch' worse. Many pundits and commentators are saying that this result could spell the end for Moyes; after believing United would stick with him until the end of the season at least, even I'm now unsure of his position. 

All we know is that Moyes' odds for the sack race have been slashed dramatically: Coral have him at 9/2 to be the next manager to leave his post, something that seemed unthinkable at the start of the year. BetVictor also have him at a phenomenal 1/20 to not see out his six-year contract. Numbers talk, and they're not saying nice things about Moyes.

Stale United grind out stalemate

United have been so, so poor of late and that run could well continue into Wednesday's game. You can find them to win at home at 1/2 with Bet365. The draw is 7/2 with 18/5 with BetVictor, while the Olympiakos win is 6/1 with Stan James.

We like the look of Both Teams to Score and a draw which is a decent 5/1 with Paddy Power. Home advantage might not be enough to see United through, especially if Olympiakos play as impressive a game as they did a few weeks ago.

On-loan gunner compounds the misery

Joel Campbell, the Arsenal forward on-loan at Olympiakos, was eye-catching when he played against the Champions in the first-leg, even grabbing himself a goal. We reckon he might do that again in the second-leg, and you can find him at brilliant odds of 6/1 with Betfred to do just that.

This one might not be one for the neutral, given we are tipping under 2.5 goals for this one, which can be found at 11/10 with Ladbrokes.
