Manchester United hosts Young Boys in round 6 of the Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Wednesday, December 8th at Old Trafford (Manchester)
A few days ago, the Red Devils played their first match under the management of Ralf Rangnick. They managed to beat Crystal Palace in the Premier League (1-0). The winning goal was scored by Fred. Now Manchester is not in optimal shape, but it is quite good. The team did not suffer a single defeat in the last four matches in all tournaments (three victories and one draw). As for the state of things in the Champions League, the Mancunians are on the 1st line in the group standings with ten points scored. The gap from the 2nd place is three points, and the team has already locked up a place in the playoffs. If the Red Devils manage to earn at least one point in the upcoming match, they will not fall below the 1st line. Manchester United scored ten goals in five Champions League matches, and six of them were the merits of Cristiano Ronaldo.

Young Boys are predictably in last place in the group standings. The Swiss club has only four points after five rounds. However, the Yellow-Blacks retain chances of advancing to the Europa League playoffs. To do this, they need to earn three points in the upcoming match and hope that Atalanta will not be able to beat Villarreal. Young Boys have relatively modest away statistics in the Champions League. In the last ten games, they gained only one victory (and it happened in the qualifiers) and three draws and suffered six defeats. The Yellow-Blacks have the weakest defensive line in the quartet, which allowed their opponents to score 11 times. The Swiss themselves scored six times.
The first match in the current Champions League group stage ended with a sensational victory for Young Boys (2-1). The Yellow-Blacks have conceded at least one goal in all five games. At the same time, the Red Devils scored at least one goal in all matches. The British have already locked up a spot in the playoffs. However, I have no doubt that they will play to win. First, Manchester United needs to make amends for the failure in the first head-to-head match. Secondly, the Red Devils have a new head coach, and they will now prove their professional efficiency to him. The visitors also need a victory, but we all perfectly understand that they will earn three points only if something extraordinary happens, like in the first game. Then Young Boys won thanks to a mistake by Jesse Lingard, but it is unlikely to happen for the second time in a row.
Prediction for the match: Manchester United to win with -1.5 handicap
