MANCHESTER UNITED would slump to the bottom of their Champions League Group with a loss against Copenhagen but a win could propel them into a qualifying spot – fine margins.
Andre Onana and Harry Maguire were the unlikely heroes when the Red Devils faced their Danish opponents in the reverse fixture.
Maguire’s header followed by Andre Onana’s stoppage-time penalty save fired United to three crucial points at Old Trafford.
But since then, the Red Devils have suffered two damning 3-0 loses at the hands of noisy neighbours Manchester City and high-flying Newcastle.
However, Erik ten Hag’s men will be oozing with confidence as they go into this game off the back of a last-ditch win against Fulham.
