CHAMPIONS LEAGUE IS BACK! Man Utd vs Sabah Preview, Starting XI & Prediction

from The Promised Land | A Manchester United Podcast · host Scott Saunders

Champions League football is finally back at Old Trafford as Manchester United begin their European campaign against Azerbaijani champions Sabah. Michael Carrick's side return to Europe's biggest competition after a three-season absence, with United looking to make the perfect start against a Sabah team preparing for the first Champions League league-phase match in their history. This episode previews the game, takes a closer look at the opposition and assesses the big selection decisions facing Carrick — particularly with Manchester City visiting Old Trafford just three days later. How much should United rotate? Is it time for Benjamin Šeško to start? Could Andrey Santos come into midfield? And which players need to make their case for a place in Carrick's strongest XI? Plus, the predicted Manchester United starting line-up, key battles and score prediction as another Champions League journey begins at Old Trafford.
