Manchester United host Roma at Old Trafford on Tuesday, November 3 (3:00 PM ET / 2:00 PM CT / 12:00 PM PT).
Manchester United have no fresh fitness concerns to report, and Roma are in the same boat, so both managers should have a full group to pick from. Bruno Fernandes remains the man United will lean on creatively, with a goal and 7 chances created from his 237 minutes so far, while Matheus Cunha and Joshua Zirkzee offer the main attacking threats and Benjamin Šeško provides a route off the bench. Roma will again build around Donyell Malen, who already has 3 goals, 13 shots and 2 assists from 236 minutes, with Niccolò Pisilli and Nahuel Molina supporting from midfield.

Bruno Fernandes, already on a goal and 7 chances created this season, looks the most likely source for the hosts, while Donyell Malen’s 3 goals from 13 shots make him Roma’s clearest threat. Expect Manchester United, on 3 points from 3 games, to edge a Roma side sitting on 4 points from the same number of matches.
