Man Utd faced Galatasaray in the second match of the group stage of the C1 Cup – Champions League. They need to win to get the first 3 points, aiming for the next calculations.

There were no surprises when Man Utd lost 3-4 to Bayern Munich in their opening match. The above score does not reflect the true situation of the match. Bayern is the team that completely dominates the game. Man Utd got 3 goals thanks to the single efforts and subjectivity of the German representative.

Galatasaray is not as strong as Bayern Munich, but that does not mean Man Utd will have an easy match. In the “underdog” position, the team from Türkiye will likely choose a defensive – counter-attacking style of play and let Man Utd hold the ball.With just such a simple theoretical approach to the match, Crystal Palace got 3 points against the Red Devils right at Old Trafford a few days ago. That loss put pressure on coach Erik ten Hag’s chair. The Dutch coach encountered countless difficulties when he lost 5 matches since the beginning of the season in all competitions.

In this match, Man Utd welcomed the return of two especially important players, Sergio Reguilon and Antony. In the situation where Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia have not set a return date, the Reguilon loan contract plays a very important role for Man Utd.

Meanwhile, Antony officially returned to training after the controversy off the field. This gives coach Erik ten Hag more options in attack. In the right hallway, Facundo Pellistri probably has no chance. Bruno Fernandes will start in this position and the guardian is Mason Mount.

Coach Erik ten Hag in particular and Man Utd need victory to relieve the situation. Another defeat, especially in the European arena, could make things worse for the Old Trafford team.
