After a great comeback against Southampton in the Premier League a couple of days ago, Manchester United now face PSG in the Champions League. The midweek fixture will be at Old Trafford, where United haven’t been emphatic this season yet. Manchester United clinched a victory against the Parisians at Paris last month and thus they will be eager to get their revenge as well.
But the United side looks stable and confident now and will be expected to give PSG a tough fight at Old Trafford. Though Solskjaer will not be very happy with the performance against Southampton, as United conceded a couple of goals, but will be proud of the comeback. But the United boss will have to make some decisions before the PSG game as some of his best players might be missing for the game.
Manchester United need only a draw against PSG to qualify for the Round of 16 in the Champions League. On the other hand, Thomas Tuchel along with the likes of Neymar and Mbappe will look to take revenge from United. PSG haven’t been great, neither in Ligue-1 nor the Champions League and thus will need to put out a team effort at Old Trafford.
