MANCHESTER UNITED face RB Leipzig tonight with qualification to the knockout stages of the Champions League in their own hands.
The Red Devils ran out 5-0 winners in the reverse fixture in October, with goals from Mason Greenwood, Anthony Martial and a second-half brace from Marcus Rashford blowing away Julian Nagelsmann’s side.
United currently top Group H on goal difference but could end up finishing in third place if they lose to Leipzig and Paris Saint-Germain get the better of or draw with Istanbul Basaksehir.
United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will be without the services of three players for Tuesday’s crunch clash with Leipzig.
Edinson Cavani and Anthony Martial will miss the match at the Red Bull Arena due to injury.
Solskjaer will also be unable to call on Fred, who is ruled out of the contest through suspension.
The Norwegian will, however, have David de Gea back at his disposal following his recovery from a knee injury, which he suffered in United’s comeback win over Southampton last month,
It remains to be seen if Paul Pogba will feature after his agent said it was ‘over’ for him at the club.
RB Leipzig – 13/10
Draw – 13/5
Man Utd – 15/8
