Manchester United host Bayern Munich at Old Trafford this Tuesday in the last game of the Champions League Group stage. Bayern have already secured their qualification to the knock-out rounds, but the second spot could still be won by three of the teams.
Manchester United currently sit bottom of Group A after five games. The Red Devils have one win, one loss and three losses which leaves them on four points, one point behind both Copenhagen and Galatasaray.
In their last five games in all competitions, United have two wins, one draw and two losses. Alejandro Garnacho opened the scoring against Everton with a bicycle kick and was joined on the scoresheet in the second half by Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial in the 3 - 0 win for United. In the Champions League, United travelled to Galatasaray. Garnacho and Bruno Fernandes put United into a 2 - 0 lead, but Hakim Ziyech’s first goal meant it was 2 - 1 at halftime. Scott McTominay put United 3 - 1 ahead, but another goal from Ziyech and a goal from Muhammed Kerem Akturkoglu meant the game finished 3 - 3.
Back in the Premier League, United faced Newcastle. Anthony Gordon scored the only goal of the game in the second half to give Newcastle the 1 - 0 win. United were back to winning ways against Chelsea. McTominay opened the scoring, but Cole Palmer equalised before halftime. However, another McTominay goal gave United the 2 - 1 win.
The last time out for United was against Bournemouth. Dominic Solanke, Philip Billing and Marcos Senesi all scored in the shock 3 - 0 win for The Cherries.
Bayern Munich, on the other hand, sit top of Group A. The German side have four wins and one draw and are the only unbeaten team in the table. Bayern have 13 points in five games, eight points above Copenhagen and Galatasaray.
In their last five games in all competitions, Bayern have three wins, one draw and one loss. In the Champions League, Bayern hosted Galatasaray. Harry Kane grabbed a six minute brace after the 80th minute to give Bayern the late 2 - 0 lead. Cedric Bakambu did score for Galatasaray, but Bayern held on for the 2 - 1 win. Kane picked up another brace and was joined on the scoresheet by Raphael Guerreiro and Eric Choupo-Maxim in the 4 - 2 win over Heidenheim.
The game against Koln saw Kane score once again, this time in a 1 - 0 win for Bayern that saw them register 21 shots. The one draw came in the Champions League against Copenhagen. Neither side could score in the 0 - 0 draw, with Bayern only managing two shots on target with 63% of the possession.
The most recent outing for Bayern was a shock loss against Frankfurt. Joshua Kimmich did scored for Munich but a brace from Eric Junior Dina Ebimbe and goals from Omar Marmoush, Hugo Larsson and Ansgar Knauff gave Frankfurt the 5 - 1 win.
Manchester United and Bayern Munich have met 12 times in their histories, with the first meeting coming in the 1999/99 Champions League Group stage. Bayern have the better record in the fixture with five wins in comparison to United’s two wins, with the other five games ending in a draw.
