Man United closing as slight betting favorites to beat Chelsea in Premier League return

Whilst they won’t be armed with a new permanent manager for their Premier League return against Chelsea on Sunday, Man United are closing as the slightest of betting favorites with the bookies to beat the London side this weekend.

And awaiting the arrival of new permanent head coach, Ruben Amorim at the beginning of the next international football break, the best Canadian casinos are offering gamblers and punters a host of their favorite casino games and prizes, with Man United slight -150 betting favorites to beat +160 betting underdogs, Chelsea.

Seeing their exit from the Carabao Cup overnight, Enzo Maresca’s side were dumped out by recent finalists, Newcastle United, with a quick double from Alexander Isak paired with a first half Axel Disasi own goal felling the London side to an insurmountable 2-nil loss on the road.

However, experiencing a certain manager bounce following the sacking of Dutch manager, Erik ten Hag at the beginning of the week following a string of less than admirable results, Man United put five goals past a leaky Leicester City to eventually run out at 5-2 winners at Old Trafford, and book their place in a quarter final bracket in another trip to London to take on recent winners, Spurs to attempt to book a third straight trip to Wembley this season. 

And set to remain in the dugout for matches against Chelsea, PAOK Salonika, and a Premier League return against Leicester City, van Nistelrooy expressed his interest in remaining in a staff role at the club following the arrival of Amorim ahead of his first league match as manager. 

“I’m here to help and serve and give my everything for the club in any capacity with so many people here around me that want the best for the club and that will never change,” Ruud van Nistelrooy said following Man United’s victory against Leicester City.

Of course – I came here as an assistant to help the club,” Van Nistelrooy said. “Now in this role, I’m helping as long as needed. In the future in any capa­city, I’m here to help the club further to build towards the future – that’s what I’m here for.”

And across in Portugal, ahead of his move from Sporting Lisbon to take the reigns at Old Trafford, the above-mentioned 39-year-old, Amorim – who is preparing for a UEFA Champions League clash with Man City next week, remained tight-lipped on his future.

“It’s a negotiation between two clubs, it’s never easy,” Ruben Amorim explained in Lisbon on Thursday afternoon.

“Even with the clauses, it’s never easy, they have to talk, and we will have clarification after the game,” Ruben Amorim explained. “It will be very clear. So it’s one more day after the game tomorrow, we will have a decision made.”
