Former Manchester United player Robbie Savage is backing his old club to endure another miserable outing – this time against German champions Bayern Munich.
“There’s slight hope [for Man United] considering Bayern’s form at the Allianz, they’ve only won three of their last nine in all competitions.”
“That’s a slight bit of hope for Manchester United fans and Erik ten Hag’s side going to the Allianz.”
“I don’t think they’ll get anything, though, their form is really, really poor.” Worrying times for the Red Devils.
Harry Kane is in fine form for Bayern and I’m backing him to get a brace, along with a Bayern to nil.
Team news
German champions Bayern Munich are without Tarek Buchmann, Kingsley Coman, Raphael Guerreiro, Tom Hulsmann, Gabriel Marusic and veteran goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.
Manchester United, on the other hand, won’t be able to count on Amad Diallo, Tom Heaton, Kobbie Mainoo, Tyrell Malacia, Luke Shaw and Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
Jadon Sancho is expected to remain frozen out of the side, while Antony will also miss the match following assault allegations.
Sofyan Amrabat, Mason Mount and Raphael Varane are doubts ahead of the trip to Germany.
