FCSB vs Manchester United: Europa League prediction, kick-off time, team news, TV, live stream, h2h, odds

Just a point separates the two teams in the Europa League table as they meet for the first time, meaning a win for either team will secure a last-16 place but dropped points would put them in danger of playing a two-legged play-off tie next month.

United know they will not have it all their own way in Romania with FCSB, formerly Steaua Bucharest, pushing to make the Europa League knockout stages for the first time seven seasons.

Here’s everything you need to know about the game…

FCSB vs Man Utd is scheduled for an 8pm GMT kick-off today, Thursday, January 30, 2025.

The match will take place at The National Arena in Bucharest.

TV channel: In the UK, the game will be televised live on TNT Sports.

Live stream: Fans can catch the contest live online via the Discovery+ app and website.

Live blog: You can follow all the action on matchday via Standard Sport’s live blog.

Ruben Amorim could hand another start to second-choice goalkeeper Altay Bayindir, while Tyrell Malacia is also pushing for more minutes. Toby Collyer’s growing reputation could see him get the nod in Romania.

FCSB hope to have former Tottenham defender Vlad Chiriches available after the veteran missed the last three games through injury. Star striker Darius Olaru remains sidelined.

United have been far from convincing this season but their record on the road in Europe is noteworthy, having won four and drawn two of their last six in the Europa League.
