Manchester United face Istanbul Basaksehir later tonight in the Champions League as the Red Devils look to get back to winning ways. The loss to Arsenal was disheartening for the players and the fanbase but the team looks set to continue the good form in Champions League. Solskjaer was expected to field a strong starting lineup, and the Norwegian has delivered with a strong system in place.

▪️ @DeanHenderson and Axel start
▪️ @Donny_Beek6 comes in for @Fred08Oficial

In between the sticks, Dean Henderson makes his Champions League debut as the Englishman will look to cement his place. The likes of Axel Tuanzebe, Donny Van de Beek and Juan Mata also get rare starts for the Red Devils. Upfront, Marcus Rahsford and Anthony Martial will be given the goalscoring duties as they will look to continue their good form.
Solskjaer and Manchester United took a lot of stick after the loss to Arsenal and will look to win back the fanbase. Looking at both the sides, the Red Devils are favourites to win. But the Champions League has had a lot of upsets lately as United will try to avoid one more.
