Basaksehir Preview – Can Basaksehir grab a lifeline?
If Istanbul Basaksehir are to grab a lifeline in this Matchday 3 clash against Manchester United in the Champions League, then the hosts will have to achieve what the other teams in Group H, PSG and RB Leipzig, failed to do and that was to beat Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team.
Four wins out of their last six matches overall in all competitions suggest on paper that Istanbul Basaksehir stand a decent chance of halting United’s march towards claiming a top two finish in the group, but back-to-back wins in this Champions League campaign beg to differ.
Losses to RB Leipzig 2-0 away and a 2-0 loss at home to PSG have landed Basaksehir bottom of the group and although they hold home advantage here, the hosts have lost five of their last six ties overall along with losing their last three at home on the trot with defeats against Sevilla, Olympiakos and PSG.
Manchester Utd Preview – Can Man Utd continue good start?
Wednesday’s visitors, Manchester United, have picked up early back-to-back wins in this season’s Champions League group stage with victories recorded over their closes rivals, PSG, 2-1 away from home on Matchday 1 which they followed up with a resounding 5-0 thrashing of RB Leipzig at Old Trafford last week.
United therefore sit three points clear at the top of Group H but their 1-0 loss to Arsenal in the Premier League on the weekend should ensure a fully-focused United in Turkey on Wednesday night as they look to take another step towards qualifying for the knockout round.
The visitors’ results on the road in this competition have been a little patchy in recent times, winning four of their last six away ties but they should have too much quality for Basaksehir in this clash.
