Midweek Review - 21 Oct 2009


CSKA Moscow vs Manchester United



"This time round, Man Utd cannot anyhowly shoot themselves in the foot."
-Gary, 21 Oct 2009

Another win and climb to the top of the table. For a moment i thought Man Utd will finally score more than one goal to clear the handicap, but Bolton refused to act to the script.

Next match against CSKA Moscow. I believe Fergie is casting one eye on the weekend fixture against Liverpool where they already have 4 defeat, with the latest against Sunderland via a beach ball deflection. Bizarre goal!!

Hence i believe that Fergie might not opt for the kill but rather play out a dull draw game to keep their away winning streak continues.

Some interesting facts for this match: Man Utd have not won against any Russian teams. CSKA Moscow have won 2 times against English teams. Tall order for Man Utd to get a point from this game! Worst case scenerio will be Man Utd buang these 2 fixtures against CSKA Moscow, and win the remaining 2 games against Besiktas and Wolfsburg to qualify for the knockout rounds. This time round, Man Utd cannot anyhowly shoot themselves in the foot.

CSKA Moscow Team News: Full team to choose from.

Man Utd Team News: Owen Hargreaves is out.

Odds and Analysis: Man Utd is giving 0.5 handicap. I rather eat it.
