Zlatan Ibrahimovic comes into the match as the betting favourite to score a goal at any point in the match with a best price of 8/5 to score at any point in the contest. Kelechi Iheanacho is City's best hope and he comes in with a price of about 12/5 right now to grab an anytime goal.
The big story coming into this one is likely to be Marcus Rashford and whether he gets a start. He came in off the bench to grab a last gasp goal in their last contest when they looked to be cruising to a 0-0 draw and some dropped points early in the season. The young player is going from strength to strength and could be set to make a big statement on this absolute biggest of stages on Saturday.
Look for Marcus Rashford to grab an anytime goal with a price of about 9/4 – the same price as United captain Wayne Rooney.
