FC Copenhagen name player they fear

FC Copenhagen duo Lukas Lerager and Mohamed Elyounoussi have singled out Manchester United midfielder Christian Eriksen as a player they are hoping to keep quiet on Tuesday night.

Defeats to Bayern Munich and Galatasaray have put the Reds on the brink of an early exit from Europe. This means a victory against FC Copenhagen will be imperative towards their progression out of Group A.
