How to watch and follow FC Copenhagen v United

Monday 06 November 2023 11:50

Manchester United make our second Champions League trip of the season on Wednesday, as we face FC Copenhagen in Denmark.

The Reds got back to winning ways with Bruno Fernandes's last-gasp winner at Fulham on Saturday and Erik ten Hag is now looking for his side to kick on.

Andre Onana's penalty-saving heroics stole the headlines in the 1-0 home win against the Danish champions on 24 October and Jacob Neestrup's men will no doubt be out for revenge.

OUR RECORD AGAINST COPENHAGEN

That recent 1-0 triumph was United's fourth match against the Danish giants, with Harry Maguire's goal proving the difference between the sides 17 years on from a 3-0 victory back in 2006/07.

We have faced them at Parken Stadium only once before this week's game, when Marcus Allback's second-half finish sealed a narrow 1-0 win for them in the reverse group fixture under Sir Alex Ferguson.

That is, however, our only defeat against them, with Fernandes's penalty clinching a 1-0 victory for United at Rhein Energie Stadion in a Europa League quarter-final in August 2020.

FORM GUIDE

Table-topping FCK came from behind twice to beat Randers 4-2 on Sunday and move four points clear of arch-rivals Brondby, who face Aarhus on Monday.

Neestrup's side have won 10, drawn two and lost two of their league fixtures this term, although both of the reverses have come at the Parken Stadium, with Silkeborg and Midtjylland both winning there.
