PREVIEW
It’s another Man U conundrum tonight as they take on Ukrainian outfit Shakhtar in their final Group A game.
It’s set against a backdrop of Shakhtar needing to win to get through to the last 16 whereas Man U need to avoid defeat if they are not to progress as group winners.
Clearly nerves are getting rattled at Old Trafford with back to back defeats (first since 2002) in the Premier League courtesy of Everton and Newcastle and David Moyes will be mightily relieved to get all three points here.
However he has some injury problems and will no doubt have in mind resting a few players given the relative importance of this game and the more urgent need to get back into form in the Premier League where they next play Aston Villa on Sunday.
Defenders Nemanja Vidic, Patrice Evra and Chris Smalling are doubts for and the trio, as well as Marouane Fellaini, missed training on Monday.
Not sure we can be on Man U with currrent concerns and prefer the draw on BETDAQ.
RECOMMENDATION: (1-10 points)
5 points DRAW at around 3.6 on BETDAQ
