The Champions League resumes Tuesday with Groups E, F, G, and H in action.
CFR Cluj-Napoca vs. Manchester United 2:45 PM ET
Man U suffered its second loss of the season against Tottenham at the Old Trafford but will get a nice to remedy their situation with a match against CFR Cluj-Napoca. Man U barely won its first match against Galatasaray but is poised to take control of the group if they can handle Cluj, who shocked Braga 2-0 in their first match. Cluj could ride that momentum into their home stadium against a heartbroken Man U. This will be an interesting match as the spotlight will be on how the Cluj defense handles the strong tandem Robin Van Persie and Shinji Kawaga. The other question big question will surround David De Gea and Anders Lindegaard. The two have been alternating matches for weeks meaning that De Gea will get the next shot but one has to wonder how the instability in net is affecting the defense.
Prediction: Man U is still the class of the group. 3-0 win for them.
Galatasaray vs. Braga 2:45 PM ET
With both teams being on the losing end of their respective matches, they will be desperate to fall behind 0-2. Galatasaray has to be the favorite here however as they pushed Man U to the limit in their first match. However, Braga's loss could be a result of misfortunes that resulted from Cluj having their former players. We will find out which club is the real problem when these two meet up on Tuesday.
Prediction: Galatasaray is at home and looked better in the first match. 1-0 Galatasaray.
