Don’t give away cheap free-kicks
Manchester United should know that Midtjylland won’t have too many chances in the game and they should be limited to free-kicks or corners. We have seen how fragile the United defending is in the game against Sunderland and pressure from the home side could see the team crack up.
United should ensure that they do not commit many fouls, the Red half of Manchester average close to 15 fouls a game, a surprising stat considering that Sam Allardyce’s side managed just 7 in the game against United. Manchester United have to be disciplined if they are to win this game or at least come out with a positive result.
Play with two strikers
The side played with Martial and Lingard as the two wide men coming in to help Wayne Rooney but he was often left without support. There aren’t many teams that do play with two up front but United need to create a partnership once again.
They have had some of the best forwards in the history of the Premier League and they always played in pairs. Martial’s movement and Rooney’s vision could be a match made in heaven, maybe this is the game to try something out like that.
