Double chance : Manchester United or draw

Manchester United are heading into this Champions League match in poor form, having lost their last two games, including a heavy 5-2 defeat. They have only won one of their last five matches, so they will be looking to turn things around. On the other side, RB Leipzig are in even worse shape, having lost four of their last five games, including three defeats in a row. Both teams are struggling, but United’s recent results have been slightly less disastrous.

When these two sides met back in 2020, the games were full of goals, with a 5-0 win for Leipzig and a 3-2 win for them as well. Given that both teams are low on confidence, this match looks like it could be a close and open contest. However, since United are at home and have shown a bit more fight recently, they seem more likely to avoid defeat. A draw is also a very real possibility, but if forced to pick a winner, Manchester United edge it.
