Manchester United vs Galatasaray Prediction and Betting Tips | 3rd October 2023

Manchester United will be looking to get back to winning ways as they host Galatasaray in a UEFA Champions League group-stage encounter on Tuesday night.

The Red Devils fell to a dispiriting 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Saturday. It was their second successive loss at Old Trafford in the Premier League and these are difficult times to be a Manchester United fan.

Erik Ten Hag's men have now lost five matches across all competitions in the new season and look disjointed and uninspired on the pitch.

United have remained within an arm's length of chaos and crisis in recent years and their dismal start to the new campaign could devolve into yet another mess if they don't turn things around soon.

A long list of injuries hasn't helped but Ten Hag needs to work out a winning formula soon or he could be lined up by the guillotine in no time. United suffered a 4-3 loss to Bayern Munich in their Champions League opener and will be looking for their first win in Europe this Tuesday.

Meanwhile, this is Galatasaray's first Champions League campaign since the 2019-20 season. The reigning champions of the Turkish Super Lig settled for a 2-2 draw with FC Copenhagen in their first Champions League opener.

Galatasaray are yet to concede a single loss across all competitions this season. They have picked up six wins in seven Turkish Super Lig matches so far and have the firepower to take the game to a rattled Manchester United side on Tuesday.
