Match Overview
FC Copenhagen travel to Old Trafford in Manchester to take on Manchester United in a match in the third round of the UEFA Champions League on 24 October. The Red Devils have had a poor start to their Champions League campaign and will be hoping to correct their form with the support of their home supporters here on Tuesday.
Key Highlights
Coming into this game on the back of a rather showy 2-1 win over Sheffield United on Saturday, the Red Devils will try to make sure that they put up a better showing and try to beat Copenhagen by a more distinguished margin. The visiting side will know that they do not have the defenders required to keep an all-out assault from United away from goal.
Injury Report
While Casemiro is suspended, the likes of Tyler Malacia, Luke Shaw, Lisandro Martinez and Aaron Wan-Bissaka continue to be ruled out for quite some time for Manchester United. William Clem, meanwhile, is one of the big-scale absentees for Copenhagen.
Prediction
Copenhagen can bank upon the fact that they have been unbeaten in the last seven matches that they have played away from home. United, on the other hand, have lost two out of the last four matches that they have played at home. If Copenhagen press high, they will be able to put United under pressure. Still, we expect Manchester United to win this game.
