⚽️ Score predictions
Sports Mole's Daniel Lewis: Istanbul Basaksehir 0-2 Manchester United
"Basaksehir have yet to collect a point from their two Champions League matches and, while they will certainly be up for this huge game, they lack the quality of their opponents.
"United will be looking to respond to their disappointing defeat to Arsenal and this seems like the ideal kind of fixture to regain some momentum ahead of a tough trip to Everton."
WhoScored's Josh Wright: Istanbul Basaksehir 0-2 Manchester United
"Istanbul Basaksehir have started Group H with back-to-back defeats, losing 2-0 to both RB Leipzig and PSG.
"Manchester United have surprisingly beaten PSG and RB Leipzig in their opening two matches, even drubbing the latter 5-0 last week.
"United slipped to a 1-0 home defeat to Arsenal at the weekend but have been in formidable form on the road since the end of January, only losing to Sevilla, on a neutral ground, in that time."
