Fenerbahce vs Manchester United: Preview, lineups, and predictions

Fenerbahce appointed the Portuguese icon in the summer after narrowly missing out on the Super Lig

title last season. However, his team is already eight points behind league leaders and eternal rivals Galatasaray after eight games.

United’s performance has been consistent since Tottenham’s 3-0 victory at home. However, the Dutchman is in need of a significant improvement in his performance to alleviate the burden on his shoulders. In the league phase table, the hosts are 13th with four points, having defeated Union Saint-Gilloise on Matchday 1, while the hapless United are 21st heading into this fixture.What time does Fenerbahce vs Man Utd commence?
