Manchester United vs Otelul: Man City, Villareal game Champions League

Manchester United vs Otelul Galati Champions League game is expected to capture the attention of many teams especially of those in the English Premier League. The fact of the matter is that the Red Devils do not have the same fire on their eyes like the way they started the season last year.

Manchester United looks forward to maintain the second spot in the Group C of the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday, however, all eyes will be on them as Alex Fergusson will be tested in handling the Red Devils. As of the moment, the Red Devils captured only one game of the three games. It was a month ago when Man United overthrew the Romanians in Bucharest through the magnificent performance of Wayne Rooney in the penalties.

The reality for Manchester United this season is that they are not playing the best soccer in comparison to last season. Drawing the difference, Man Utd must have the patience in dealing with the offensive attacks especially when the opponent has that thwarting defense.

If Manchester United will win the game, they will have a four point advantage with two games left paving them to advance to the next round. With so much advantage over their competitors today, Manchester United is expected to win.

On the other hand, Otelul would only dream for a draw but it is important for them to play at their best. Otelul is just playing to gain a point and this would be possible if it will end up a draw. Coach Dorinel Munteanu understands that the team is not expected to topple Manchester United but a draw will satisfy them.

Manchester United just pulled off a 1-0 victory against Everton last Saturday and the Red Devils want the streak to continue so that they will have the momentum in their chase against Manchester City.

In this game Nemanja Vidic will not be playing because of suspension and it is possible that Rio Ferdinand might be recalled. Furthermore, Manchester United will be without the services of Ashley Young, Chris Smalling, Ryan Giggs, Tom Cleverley. However, the depth of Mancherster Utd will always be measured on how the players will respond in this game.

Meanwhile, midfielder Laurentiu Bus will not be playing for Otelul because of left ankle. Adding to the problem, defender Milan Perendija will not be in uniform also because of suspension.

It is the time for Manchester United to set plays in preparation for the English Premier League this coming Saturday. The Red Devils believe that they can still make a noise in the English Premier League and in the UEFA Champions League.
