Ruben Amorim makes his Old Trafford bow tonight and the new Manchester United boss should get up an running with a Europa League win over Bodo/Glimt.
The size of the task facing the Sporting Lisbon manager was laid bare on Sunday as he could only lead his side to a 1-1 draw at Ipswich Town in the Premier League.
Some players didn't look comfortable in his new 3-4-3 formation and it's clear there will be some teething troubles as they adapt to his ways.
But with a big Old Trafford crowd cheering the players on, Manchester United should still be too strong for a Bodo/Glimt side who have won just once in their last five games.
That poor run included a home loss to Qarabag in Europe but the Norwegians have also beaten Braga and Porto so they shouldn't be underestimated.

Manchester United v Bodo/Glimt top betting tips
It's tricky finding value with Betano making Manchester United their 2/11 hot favourites. But the Bodo/Glimt have scored in all but one of their group games so far, which makes BTTS worth a look at 37/40 with Betano. Adding on over 2.5 goals boosts the odds to 28/25 in a bet builder.
Amad Diallo delivered for me when I backed him to either score or assist against PAOK, with the winger grabbing both of United's goals in the 2-0 win. It looks like he's Amorim's choice for right wing-back now and that makes an assist more likely than a goal tonight.
Backing the youngster to set up a goal against Bodo/Glimt pays 3/1 with Bet365 and that looks decent value after he assisted Marcus Rashford's strike against Ipswich.
Jens Petter Hauge should be the biggest threat for the Norwegians and the 10-goal forward is a tempting evens just to have an effort on target.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Roma top betting tips
Tottenham remain favourites to win the Europa League – despite suffering their first loss in the competition with a 3-2 defeat to Galatasaray last time out.
Ange Postecoglou has made a lot of changes for their European games so far but has still had enough quality in reserve to get the job done.
Confidence will be high after their stunning 4-0 win over Manchester City but Spurs have been so inconsistent that it wouldn't be a big surprise if they followed it up by losing at home to Roma tonight.
The form of the Serie A side suggests that unlikely, with three defeats and a draw in their last four outings. Old fox Claudio Ranieri is back at the helm but suffered a 1-0 loss to Napoli on his return at the weekend.
Going for goals usually pays off with Postecoglou's side but combining BTTS with over 2.5 goals only pays 7/10 at Betano. Over 3.5 strikes on its own is a little better at 23/20 while over 1.5 first-half strikes pays the same price.
Artem Dovbyk will be a handful up front for the Italian side and the big Ukrainian looks good at 6/5 with Bet365 just to have an effort on target.
Nice vs Rangers top betting tips
The Europa League has offered Rangers an escape from their domestic troubles this season and Philippe Clement's side are on track for a place in the knockout stages after banking seven points so far.
Their away form has been impressive, with a 2-0 win in Malmo followed up by a 1-1 draw in Greece against Conference League champions Olympiakos.
But they were thrashed 4-1 by Lyon at home and now face a Nice side who are of a similar standard. The Ligue 1 side are on a five-game unbeaten run so it's no surprise to see them as Betano's 4/5 favourites. Adding on over 1.5 goals boosts the odds to 47/40 in a bet builder.
UEFA Conference League top betting tips
Chelsea have used the Europa League to rotate their huge squad this season but it hasn't had an adverse affect, with the Blues winning every game so far. They visit German side Heidenheim tonight and I fancy winger Jadon Sancho to either score or assist at 20/21 with Bet365.
Hearts are also on the road and face a Cercle Brugge side who play a direct style of football, with lots of crosses. That should see the corner count rack up and over 10 flag kicks looks good at evens with Bet365.
