How Manchester United should line up vs FC Copenhagen in Champions League fixture

manchestereveningnews.co.uk

Manchester United have another must-win game against F.C. Copenhagen in the Champions League on Wednesday night. United bounced back after successive 3-0 defeats against Manchester City and Newcastle to claim an important three points against Fulham in the Premier League on Sunday, despite the performance being unconvincing again.

Bruno Fernandes' late goal earned the victory at Craven Cottage and United are now hoping for consecutive wins against Copenhagen, who only narrowly lost in the reverse fixture at Old Trafford.

Our writers have had their say on how United should line up... Samuel Luckhurst United should go from one centre half who can play once a week to another.

Raphael Varane for Jonny Evans would be the only logical change to the back four. Diogo Dalot improved on the left at Fulham.

Scott McTominay operated at a good tempo at the weekend and this is a game United need him in. Christian Eriksen was poor at the weekend but his canniness and experience could be key.
