Manchester United today faces a challenge in front of Bayern Munich to avoid elimination from the Champions League in Europe tonight
United face Bayern Munich at Old Trafford and need to end the German club's record 39 game unbeaten run in the group stage to have any chance of making the knockout stages
But even that may not be enough, as Erik ten Hag's team is at the bottom of Group A and also needs a draw between Copenhagen and Galatasaray
"What I know is that I never think about the negative. We think positively, we know what to do, we have to win to stay in Europe, that's about it," Ten Hag said on Monday
"We will prepare the team with that feeling, with that belief. We have shown in the last weeks when we are at our best we can do that"
United's biggest challenge this season is lack of continuity. That was evident last week when United produced one of their best results of the season to beat Chelsea 2-1 in midweek, only to lose 3-0 at home to Bournemouth, prompting much jeers from fans inside Old Trafford
Apart from Ten Hag at a press conference ahead of the final group game against Bayern, midfielder Scott McTominay was unable to comment on their unpredictability
However, he insisted the players were behind their manager after recent reports of unrest in the dressing room
