Valencia have already been confirmed as finishing third in this Champions League group. That means they'll be moving into the Europa League in the new year but their opponents have more to play for. Manchester United are second in the group, but a win here and a Juventus loss or draw in Switzerland against Young Boys will see Jose Mourinho's men win the group. It wasn't looking good for United when a goal down at Juventus but a brilliant late comeback saw them win that game. It was another late show at home to Young Boys but they got the win to clinch qualification. United are unbeaten in their last five games but have only won two out of six on their travels. 

The reverse fixture between these two sides saw Valencia get a goalless draw at Old Trafford. Five Valencia group games have only produced nine goals with only four scored by the Spanish side. The lack of goals has cost them dearly and low-scoring games are a regular feature for them this season and sixteen out of their last nineteen matches have had under 2.5 goals scored in them and it's nine out of the last eleven at home. No surprise that the suggested bet here is for under 2.5 goals to be scored in the game which may well fizzle out if Juventus get the lead at Young Boys.
