7017
We have 8 fixtures to enjoy in the Champions League on the 8th of November, including the meeting between FC København and Manchester United.
The game will take place at the Parken and the hosts are currently bottom of Group A on 1 point while the visitors are in third place on 3 points.
FC København come into the match having beat Randers 4-2 away from home in the Danish Superliga on the weekend.
It was Randers who opened the scoring after only 4 minutes but it took just 3 minutes for FC København to equalise.
Randers scored again in the 60th minute but FC København soon took control of proceedings with goals in the 66th and 72nd minute before adding a fourth at the end of the match.
The win over Randers means FC København have won each of their last 3 fixtures and are undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games.
There have been wins over Vejle and Hvidovre at home in the Danish Superliga plus a 1-0 win over Midtjylland in the DBU Pokalen.
In terms of the Champions League, FC København have been struggling and they have won only 1 of their last 7 matches in the competition.
However, they are not always easy to beat at home and FC København have not been beaten in 7 of their 8 most recent home games in the Champions League.
Manchester United travel to the Parken on the back of a 1-0 win at Fulham in the Premier League.
The only goal of the match was scored in the 91st minute but it was not a convincing victory for the Red Devils.
The win over Fulham was important because Manchester United had lost their previous 2 matches 3-0 against Manchester City at home in the Premier League and Newcastle United at home in the League Cup.
Trends show Manchester United have recorded just a single victory from their 6 most recent Champions League fixtures.
The win came in the reverse match against FC København but it was a closely fought contest.
Manchester United are undefeated in 3 of their last 4 away Champions League matches but have won just 1 of their last 7 on the road in the competition.
Team news: FC København have five players unavailable for this game, with David Khocholava, Mohamed Elyounoussi, Birger Meling, Noah Sahsah, and William Clem on the treatment table.
Manchester United make the trip to Denmark without Casemiro, Lisandro Martínez, Luke Shaw, and Tyrell Malacia who are injured.
There are also doubts over the fitness of Marcus Rashford and Victor Lindelof.
Given what happened in the first meeting between these teams in Group A, this should be a close game.
We expect to see few goals in the match, with one strike being enough to claim the victory. With Manchester United having the superior attacking talent, it could be the visitors who take maximum points.
