The Red Devils’ next European fixture will be in Denmark as they face Copenhagen in an immediate rematch on November 8.

It was a huge victory for Erik ten Hag’s men, who moved to within a point of Galatasaray, who are second in Group A.

United will face Fulham in the Premier League on November 4 before their match against Copenhagen.

Galatasaray (November 29, Away)

United’s penultimate group match in the Champions League will also be on the road as they face Turkish giants Galatasaray at RAMS Park on November 29.

The Red Devils know full well the challenge they will face in Turkey as they suffered a 3-2 loss to Galatasaray at Old Trafford in their previous Champions League meeting.

Rasmus Hojlund gave United the lead twice in that encounter, but Galatasaray always had an answer to record the come-from-behind win.

The Turkish club grabbed all three points after Mauro Icardi scored the winner in the 81st minute.

United return to Old Trafford for their final Champions League match, facing likely group winners Bayern Munich in that encounter.

The two teams combined for seven goals in their last Champions League meeting, with Bayern emerging as 4-3 victors, per the BBC.

The Bavarian giants are off to a spectacular start in Group A, winning all of their three matches thus far.

Bayern, who hold a five-point lead over Galatasaray at the halfway stage, may have already secured the top spot in the group before their meeting with United.

The reigning Bundesliga champions may opt to rest their stars for that contest if that is the case, which is good news for the Red Devils.
