Manchester United will have revenge on their mind when they host Super Lig champions Istanbul Basaksehir in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

The Red Devils currently top Group H with two wins from three games but fell to a 2-1 defeat in Turkey three weeks ago, making victory at Old Trafford even more vital.

Manchester United vs Istanbul Basaksehir Latest Odds

Having recorded an unconvincing 1-0 win over West Brom in the Premier League on Saturday, bet365 make Man United 1/4 (1.25) favourites to follow that up with another victory here.

Istanbul Basaksehir lost their most recent away game 3-2 at Besiktas and are unsurprisingly 10/1 (11.0) outsiders to come out on top here.

A draw would leave Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men with it all to do in their final two group games and that is priced at 5/1 (6.0) .

Manchester United vs Istanbul Basaksehir Team News

Phil Jones and Luke Shaw remain out for United whilst Jesse Lingard and Eric Bailly are unlikely to feature. Paul Pogba and Mason Greenwood could return alongside Axel Tuanzebe.

The guests are without Junior Caicara and Enzo Crivelli but have an otherwise fully-fit squad and so there should be a return to Old Trafford for Rafael, who won three Premier League titles with United.

Manchester United vs Istanbul Basaksehir Preview

Anything but victory for United would be a disastrous result, both in terms of momentum for the club and in terms of qualifying for the knockout stages of the Champions League.

However, Solskjaer’s side have struggled for consistency recently and that largely boils down to their form at Old Trafford, where the Red Devils have won just two of their six matches this season.

They have scored eight goals in that time but five of those came against RB Leipzig, and it could be another low-scoring affair against an Istanbul side that looked strong in the reverse fixture, only allowing United two shots on target.

Manchester United vs Istanbul Basaksehir Tips and Predictions

United have struggled for goals at home recently but have also managed three clean sheets in their last four games there, making the 6/4 (2.50) quote for under 2.5 goals from bet365 the best bet for this Champions League clash.
