United are one of several Premier League clubs weighing up whether to meet Bologna’s €25m (£21.7m) valuation for Jhon Lucumi, according to Corriere di Bologna.

Skive head into the contest positioned 8th in the 2. Division standings, while Fremad Amager arrive sitting 6th. The hosts have struggled for consistency, DDLWL in their last five pointing to a win rate of 28.57%. The visitors have been a mixed bag on the road, W in their last five and a win rate of 28.57% reflecting their unpredictability. The contrast in attacking output — 1.29 versus 1.43 goals per game — adds an extra layer of intrigue. The fact that Oxford ultimately fell five points short of the total needed to stay in the Championship shows that it would have required top-half - almost play-off - form during the second half of the season.

How the two sides approach the contest strategically will be key. Skive will want to control proceedings in front of their own supporters, while Fremad Amager will back themselves to cause problems on the break. Schalke had only 17 per cent of the possession but, having visited the club to interview their charismatic coach Miron Muslic, that is hardly a surprise.

Game-changers are scattered across both line-ups, and the contest may well be decided by which side's match-winners deliver on the day. The battle in midfield, where both sides look to control tempo, could prove the decisive arena. United remain on the lookout for a new defensive midfielder, having already signed Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans.

The fixture has the feel of a coin-flip, and picking a winner with any conviction would require a braver pundit than most. Fremad Amager look well-equipped to take the points on the road, with a 1-2 victory well within their reach. The result at the home ground could resonate well beyond matchday in the 2. Division picture. It is understood that his next move is most likely to take him abroad - and potentially to the Premier League.
