Manchester United will resume their journey to the top of their UEFA Champions League Group A, with a thrilling clash against Portuguese giants, SL Benfica at the Estádio Da Luz Stadium.
The match will see reunions for two United players - Nemanja 'Agu' Matic and our Jollof defender, Victor Lindelof. A homecoming also beckons for our 'Oga' at the top, José 'Uchenna' Mourinho, who made us Champions league management debut with Benfica during the 2000/2001 season.
In line with customs and tradition, José 'Uchenna' Mourinho held a pre-match press conference where he gave the latest team and injury updates.
The boss complained about the piling number of injuries to key players in the squad, which should make his lineup easy for journalists to predict at the moment.
The absentee list includes Paul 'Ikenna' Pogba, Michael 'Jeje' Carrick, Eric 'Olusegun' Bailly, the Headbanger I of Old Trafford; Oga 'Fela', Pa Zlatan 'Ekwueme' Ibrahimovic and Marcos 'Odegbami' Rojo.
The boss however did put smiles on the faces of fans, similar to the smile only seen when Nigerian 'Jollof' is about to be served in any party, when he confirmed that Marcos 'Odegbami' Rojo who has been absent for United since April, has returned to light training and should be available to play in two(2) weeks.
With these in mind, here's how we expect the boss to line up his team.
We await a sweet victory, to further secure the group's top qualification spot.
