It's been a roller coaster ride for Manchester United throughout the season. If they do well in a week, the next week would be a disaster for the Red Devils. But their journey in the UEFA Champions League has been disastrous this season. With only one win from their five games in the Champions League, Manchester United are at the bottom of the table. As a result, they are on the verge of being eliminated from the group stage. However, they still have a little chance to qualify. Manchester United must win tomorrow when they welcome Bayern Munich at Old Trafford. A potential three points against Bayern Munich and a draw between FC Copenhagen and Galatasaray would see Man United qualify for the Round of 16. Both Manchester United and FC Bayern Munich will face off against each other tomorrow off the back of a heavy defeat in their respective league. Manchester United lost to AFC Bournemouth in their last encounter in the Premier League, while FC Bayern Munich have been humiliated by Eintracht Frankfurt with 5-1 margin.
