This solidity has been further illustrated by them holding PSG to a 1-0 scoreline in Paris and taking a 0-0 draw from Galatasaray back in September.<\/li>\n<li>Brugge&#8217;s most impressive attackers throughout their Champions League group stage campaign were Nigerian Emmanuel Dennis \u2013 who bagged a brace a the Bernabeu \u2013 and Krepin Diatta. Both share a common trait, they&#8217;re lightning fast. As Brugge attempt to soak up pressure, their main ploy once winning the ball is to get it into their quick players forwards as soon as possible. While Aaron Wan-Bissaka is a brilliant covering right-back,\u00a0Man Utd lack pace at left-back, while Victor Lindelof isn&#8217;t the fastest either \u2013 this is where Philippe Clement&#8217;s men will look to hurt the Red Devils.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1120837 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/12\/16150330\/PA-45761405.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"5796\" height=\"3868\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/12\/16150330\/PA-45761405.jpg 5796w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/12\/16150330\/PA-45761405-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/12\/16150330\/PA-45761405-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/12\/16150330\/PA-45761405-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/12\/16150330\/PA-45761405-66x44.jpg 66w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 5796px) 100vw, 5796px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Weaknesses<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>While Dennis is supercharged on the run, he is incredibly wasteful in front of goal. His two goals at the Bernabeu were flush with an immense amount of luck and both he and his teammates&#8217; profligacy in the 18-yard box was a big factor in them not picking up more than their three points in the Champions League group stages. Admittedly, Diatta is a much more reliable finisher, but throughout the Brugge squad, they&#8217;re hardly reliable in front of goal.<\/li>\n<li>Wastefulness wouldn&#8217;t be such a problem for Brugge if they created a ton of chances but, at least against superior opposition in Europe, they really do struggle to generate openings when they&#8217;re not in the open field.
