Ace Football previews the Champions League game between Manchester United and PSG and offers betting tips, odds, line-ups, and team news.

Man United welcome PSG to Old Trafford in the penultimate game of the Champions League group stage campaign.

The result of this fixture would be a tale of two different stories. A win or even a draw for the Red Devils would take them through to the last 16 while a PSG victory would take the fate of the group down to the final matchday. A loss for PSG could leave them facing the possibility of an early Champions League exit.

United claimed a 2-1 win over PSG in France when they met in the first fixture of the group stage this season. The French outfit are not at their best form but given what’s at stake, they are expected to go guns blazing for a win on Wednesday night.

Part of Thomas Tuchel’s game-plan will involve keeping Marcus Rashford quiet as the United man has a thing for scoring against PSG.

Man United will be in confident spirits heading into Wednesday’s match after winning their last four matches in all competitions.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team went into the international break with a 3-1 win over Everton and returned with a 1-0 victory against West Brom.

A 4-1 thrashing of Istanbul Basaksehir was up next before they claimed a comeback win against 3-2 win against Southampton at the weekend.
