Default [pre Season] Manchester United 0 vs 2 PSG



PREVIEW: MANCHESTER UNITED V PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN

Manchester United will retain the International Champions Cup with any kind of victory over Paris Saint-Germain at Soldier Field in Chicago.

The Reds' final match of Tour 2015 presented by Aon takes place at 20:00 CT (02:00 BST on Thursday) and even a penalty shoot-out success following a draw in 90 minutes would be sufficient to secure top spot in the 10-team table.

Louis van Gaal's men have racked up successes over*Club America (1-0),*San Jose Earthquakes (3-1)*and Barcelona (3-1)*in the US. The Dutchman is closer to finalising his strongest XI and kept his starting line-up on the field against European champions Barcelona for over an hour.

Predatory striker Javier Hernandez is back in the fold and has been training along with the club's latest recruit, Argentina goalkeeper Sergio Romero. Sean Goss is the only player in the original tour party who has yet to make an appearance after David De Gea, Antonio Valencia and Marouane Fellaini featured last weekend.

Spectacular summer signing Bastian Schweinsteiger missed the win in San Jose due to a minor injury and van Gaal must consider whether to start with the same outfield line-up for the fourth consecutive game with some stunning displays during the latter part of the Barça*clash providing food for thought. For instance, Adnan Jaznuaj earned praise from the manager as he shone in a central attacking role and scored the final goal in stoppage time.

PSG performed well against Chelsea in their last outing and were unlucky to lose 6-5 in a penalty shoot-out. Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored during the 1-1 draw while Lucas Moura and*Jean-Kevin Augustin caught the eye. Coach Laurent Blanc, the former Reds centre-back, fielded 22 players in Charlotte including Benjamin Stambouli, their recent signing from Tottenham.

Live TV coverage

MUTV*is showing the match live to subscribers in the UK and Ireland with the programme starting at 01:00 BST. The broadcast is also available to view online in certain countries via United Tour Live.
