Manchester United are involved in a dead rubber game against Swiss side BSC Young Boys in the UEFA Champions League which gives manager Ralf Rangnick an opportunity to provide game time to his fringe players. The Red Devils are assured of a top finish in Group F and their priorities clearly will be on improving their domestic position in the next few months. A 2-1 loss against the same opponent had put Manchester United’s Champions League journey in jeopardy on matchday 1 but some individual brilliance from Cristiano Ronaldo and Bruno Fernandes has seen them through. Opponent Young Boys have a chance to make it to Europe should they win and the other result goes their way so they have all to play for at Old Trafford. Lionel Messi Overtakes Pele and Closes on Cristiano Ronaldo’s Goal-Scoring Record With Brace in Champions League.
Donny Van de Beek, Nemanja Matic and Dean Henderson will all start for Manchester United as confirmed by Ralf Rangnick in the pre-game interview. Mason Greenwood and Anthony Elanga are expected to lead the attack with Jesse Lingard behind them. Eric Bailly is set to partner Victor Lindelof in the backline as Harry Maguire gets a breather. Luke Shaw and Aaron Wan-Bissaka have been missing in action for few games now and the duo will look to capitalise on this opportunity.
David von Ballmoos, Christian Fassnacht, Felix Mambibi, Jean-Pierre Nsame, Joel Monteiro and Esteban Petignat are all missing for Young Boys due to injuries. Nicolas Moumi Ngamaleu troubled United the last times these two met and he will have a huge role to play on the wings again. Jordan Siebatcheu is the leading scorer for the Swiss team and should play as the no 9 in a 4-3-3.
