Manchester United blanked Sheriff Tiraspol in their first 2022 UEFA Europa League match in mid-September, 2-0.

Defender Harry Maguire could potentially miss the match for United and fellow center back Raphael Varane is out, which could open up opportunities for a desperate Sheriff side.

UEFA Europa League picks for Sheriff vs. Manchester United

Before tuning into Thursday's match, you need to see the UEFA Europa League picks from consummate soccer insider Brandt Sutton. Sutton, a former collegiate soccer player, has been SportsLine's top soccer editor for more than five years. He has followed soccer closely for much longer and factors in managerial tactics, projected lineups and past performances to make the most-informed decisions possible, keeping his finger on the pulse of the game all over the globe. Sutton also has been on a roll with his best bets, going 136-108-1 on his soccer picks this year, returning almost $1,600 for $100 bettors.

For Manchester United vs. Sheriff, Sutton is backing Sheriff to cover the 2.5-goal spread. Across all competitions, the only away match that Sheriff hasn't won, drawn, or stayed within a three-goal margin came in its last Europa League match against Group E leader Real Sociedad. Sheriff will have achallenge on its hands on Thursday without the services of defender Armel Zohouri, who received two bookings in that game, but their focus on Thursday will be in the attack. That strategy should start with left winger Rasheed Akanbi, who has scored twice in his last four league appearances.

Sheriff has only generated three goals and conceded twice in its last three league matches, but manager Victor Mihailov should know he needs to make adjustments quickly to apply more pressure. With United missing two top defenders, Sheriff can afford to be more aggressive in the Red Devils' defensive third. The greatest amount of possession by United's opponents in Europa League this season has taken place within their defensive third (745 total touches), and Mihailov's men must find a way to take advantage.
