Manchester United: Inconsistent but Unscathed

Their latest match was a 2-2 draw away to Everton, following a convincing 5-2 home win against Ipswich. However, an opening-day 2-0 defeat at Hull City suggests the defence can be vulnerable under pressure.

Sabah FA enters the group stage full of confidence after an impressive run through the qualifiers. They are on a three-match winning streak, showcasing their attacking quality by scoring 11 goals during this successful spell.

Their away form is the main question, as both of their qualifying losses came on the road. Forwards Joy-Lance Mickels and Veljko Simić, with three goals each in Europe, carry their main attacking threat.

A major boost for the visitors is having a fully fit squad with no injuries. This momentum and a full-strength team means they will believe they can cause problems and get a positive result.
