Club Brugge v Manchester United: match preview

Club Brugge v Manchester United
Club Brugge v Manchester United: probable starters in bold, contenders in light.

Manchester United are expected to make two changes to the side that won 3-1 in last week’s first leg with Bastian Schweinsteiger replacing Michael Carrick in central midfield and Marouane Fellaini coming in for Adnan Januzaj in the No10 role. Club Brugge are still hampered by an extensive injury list, made worse by Brandon Mechele’s suspension after his sending off at Old Trafford. Rich Flower
