LOOK AHEAD! It's time to look ahead for Man Utd

 LOOK AHEAD! It's time to look ahead; Man Utd

Amidst an awful slump and with their Champions League lives on the line, Manchester United host a pesky FC Copenhagen side at Old Trafford.

Anything less than three points for the host would put their European lives in real jeopardy, tasting defeat in their first two group stage matches of the campaign to leave them bottom of the Group A table.

Without a suspended Casemiro for this match plus a host of defensive injuries, Man United are up against a gauntlet against a quality European team that has Champions League experience.

Erik ten Hag will need to lean on his squad's impressive grit as they fight to the finish in recent matches, and may need to do so on more occasions in the coming weeks. Scott McTominay has provided the spark of late, but others will need to step up to make sure the Red Devils don't continue to drop points on multiple fronts.
