Game Preview
If Manchester United want to move on to the round of 16 of the Champions League, they need to defeat Bayern Munich on December 12 at Old Trafford.
Despite being in 3rd place the previous season, Manchester United hasn’t exactly been capable of living up to the expectations they set for themselves. In a match that everyone anticipated Ten Hag’s team to win, Bournemouth welcomed them in their last game after they had defeated Chelsea earlier in the week. The English team lost 0-3 in a humiliating fashion, and they will have a challenging task this game because their trust is not in themselves. To advance to the next round, United needs to defeat Bayern and hope that Galatasaray and Copenhagen will draw. Raphael Varane’s return to fitness aside, Luke Shaw will probably accompany Premier League Player of the Month Harry Maguire at center-back since Victor Lindelof is expected to miss this match.
After being eliminated from the German Cup by Saarbrücken, a team in the 3rd division, Bayern Munich had to respond, and the Reds succeeded in doing so with 4 consecutive victories. On the fifth matchday of the Champions League, a scoreless tie versus Copenhagen put an end to that streak. Tuchel will anticipate a response from his team in this game despite the fact that qualification is already certain, considering the style of the loss and the final score in the league versus Eintracht Frankfurt as the match ended 5-1. Serge Gnabry’s hamstring injury, which is expected to keep him out from playing until mid-January, made Bayern’s thumping in Frankfurt even worse. While Tuchel won’t be missing Matthijs de Ligt in this game, he doesn’t have many additional injury concerns. The only issue regarding injuries is that Bouna Sarr has been out for the season for some time.
