MUN Vs BRU Dream 11 Prediction: Tantalisingly poised, the second tie of the double header promises to be an exhilarating affair.
When Club Brugge take to the middle today for their second fixture of the Europe League clash against Manchester United, the side know they have a gargantuan task staring them in the face. After only managing to draw 1-1 in their home stadium previously, the side come into this one with the need pull off a massive result on the day.
And after failing to capitalise infront of their vociferous supporters and now looking to overhaul an away goal disadvantage, the unit know things are going to be far from easy for them. Although they are currently sitting atop of the Jupiler League, there was a clear difference in quality between the Belgium League and Premier League the last time around these two sides squared off against each other.
Where for Club Brugge the job is an extremely arduous one, the side know that they have the calibre in them to bewilder Manchester United today. Tottering in 5th spot in the Premier League, the side has endured a lopsided campaign, a ruckus which Club Brugge know will allow them to settle into their groove today and stun their opponents.
Probable Winner
Although Manchester United are always vulnerable to losing their way and collapsing, we don’t envision that happening to them today. For all their attacking exuberance, Club Brugge were tepid and meek the last time around and with Manchester United having hit some kind of form off late, they should be able to go on and progress from this encounter.

Dream 11 Picks
Goal-Keeper
We’ll be beginning our set of picks with the selection of Bruno Fernandes from Manchester United for this forthcoming encounter. The player showed why he’s been such a pivotal player for them in the Europe League the last time around with his tenacity helping his side come out of their fixture unscathed courtesy of his hoard of saves.
Defenders
While the goals could easily flow in this one, if there’s any side which has a chance of keeping a cleansheet on the day, it’s going to be Manchester United. For all their attacking might and powers, Club Brugge were dreary while moving forward the last time around with the side finding it treacherous to emulate their same lethal attacking plays from the Jupiler League infront of a superior opponent.
Along with this narrative, Brandon Williams’ ability to canter his way down the park and come up with a goal or assist makes him the first player to be inculcated in our outfit. CB Harry Maguire recently broke his deadlock with his first goal for the club against Chelsea to see him come in as well from the side.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka wraps up the trio of picks from the contingent for this owing to his attacking persuasion while from the visiting unit we have limited our side to the selection of Simon Deli.
Midfielders
Club Brugge’s leading scorer with the 12 goals and 3 assists, Hans Vanaken becomes a must have pick for this tie. If his side are to have any chance of pulling off a stunning result from this clash, his flamboyant ability to come up with an illustrious display will need to be incurred, something he’s more than capable of doing.
The 4 goals and one assist for Mats Rits this season sees us indulge in him as well for the encounter from Club Brugge while from Manchester United we’ll be beginning with Bruno Fernandes. Ever since his transfer the midfielder has had a telling effect on the side’s play, something which was evident in the one goal and assist he provided in his last encounter.
Being on corners and freekicks and having an ability to come up with pinch perfect crosses and passes sees us move in for Juan Mata as well from the outfit.
Strikers
With 10 goals and 3 assists this season and a goal the last time these two sides went a loggerheads, Anthony Martial becomes the first player to be serenaded into our component for the clash. Elsewhere, we are moving in for David Okereke from Club Brugge with his calibre having seen him snag 9 goals and 1 assist.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Dias will captain our unit while Trincao is our vice-captain owing to Sporting Braga’s effervescent skill set as an attacking unit.
