Sportstar reported that United became the first Premier League team to finish at the bottom of a Champions League group twice, repeating their 2005/06 feat.

Their group stage struggles included conceding the most goals (15) ever by a Premier League side in a UCL campaign, with only one win secured.

Adding to their woes, the Old Trafford outfit might have to contend with the absence of 11 players for their Premier League clash against Liverpool, although Luke Shaw and Marcus Rashford are fit for the showdown.

Injuries have plagued United this season, significantly impacting their performance on the field, as highlighted by MEN.
