Manchester United face the possibility of bot qualifying for the knockout stages of the Champion's League if they fail to beat Wolfsburg. United have failed to show cutting edge this season with their 0-0 draw with West Ham being their sixth 0-0 this season.This points towards defence a strong defence, with Chris Smalling having a good season and De Gea also performing well. Despite this the lack of goals and slow, boring style of play are a major worry.Wayne Rooney has been ruled out of the tie with an ankle injury but on recent form this isn't a big miss.

Wolfsburg don't have any of these problems. Bas Dost and Max Kruse have been regular goalscorers. In addition to this they've won both their home games in the Champion's League so far keeping clean sheets. They will be wanting to bounce back after their 29 game unbeaten run at home was brought to an end by Dortmund.

Player To Watch

Bastian Schweinsteiger has not been at his best since joining united in the summer but has contributed with an few important goals.His experience will make him a key player in this game and it will be interesting to see whether he can help United to turn it on when it really matters.

Score Prediction

Wolfsburg have been strong at home all season and have strong players in every department. I think they'll win 2-1with united battling but like in recent games I think they'll be unable to show the necessary incision to get a win here.
