Manchester United will entertain Bayern Munich at Old Trafford this Tuesday night as both sides look to fight for the three points in the UEFA Champions League. The Red Devils suffered a disappointing 3-0 loss against Bournemouth recently. Similarly, the Bavarian club suffered a 5-1 defeat away at Eintracht Frankfurt last weekend.
Manchester United vs Bayern Munich: Talking Tactics
Erik ten Hag will set his men up in a 4-2-3-1 formation and could instruct them to get a foothold in the game at the centre of the park and try to expose Bayern’s defensive weaknesses on the counter.
Thomas Tuchel will opt for the 4-2-3-1 formation as well and could ask his players to dominate the ball and engineer enough chances to win this clash away from home.

Key Men
Manchester United
Rasmus Hojlund and Marcus Rashford will have to carry most of the goal-scoring workload for the Mancunian club in the final third. The defensive performance of Harry Maguire and Raphael Varane could go a long way in determining the fate of this contest.
Bayern Munich
Harry Kane will be Bayern’s best hope for a goal in this clash. Both Leon Goretzka and Joshua Kimmich need to be at the top of their game if the Bavarian giants want to secure a victory at the Theatre of Dreams this week.
