VfL Wolfsburg - Manchester United

The last round of the Champions League group stage will answer many questions. Certainly, one of the most intriguing of these questions is, whether Manchester United will leave the tournament so early.

Even a draw in this game can throw United out of the tournament and the Red Devils opponent is definitely not an easy one. Wolfsburg are a really strong host and haven't lost a home game until last round, when they suffered their first home defeat, which was against Borussia Dortmund. The Wolves have won 80% of matches at home this season, scoring an average of 2.4 goals.

The Wolfsburg manager can rely on nearly all his players, while the problems regarding injuries for Louis van Gaal are a lot. Rooney, Schneiderlin, Marcos Rojo, Ander Herrera, Phil Jones, Luke Shaw and Antonio Valencia miss this meeting.

Despite recent criticism about the performance of Manchester United this season, they are only 3 points behind the 1st place in the Premier League. The team of Louis van Gaal, however, failed to win any of their last 3 games. Furthermore, United's latest away performance cannot be defined as satisfying, as they won just 1 of their last 4 away matches.

This meeting promises to be rather tense, as there is a considerable chance that Manchester United will leave the Champions League.
