Manchester United will lock their horns against Huddersfield Town to progress to the next round of FA Cup. The match is going to be really important for the Red Devils before facing Sevilla in the round of 16 in UEFA Champions League. According to the reports, Manchester United are not going through the greatest of forms in recent times. They were beaten by Newcastle United in the Premier League few days back. They are currently situated at second position in the League Table but the other teams are not far away from them in terms of points obtained.
By analysing the performance of Manchester United this season so far we find that the Red Devils are lacking a star player upfront who can change the course of the match from anywhere any day. So the main focus of the Red Devils will be now on signing a star player in the next summer transfer window.
Real Madrid too have not been up to their usual best and Zidane is struggling to get things right at the Bernabeu. The Frenchman will look to set things right from next season as they would want to challenge for all titles unlike this season. But whether this player deal goes ahead or no only time will tell. Both the teams will face a stern test in the round of 16 of Uefa Champions League. The Galacticos are going through their worst season in last 5 years of La Liga history. Nothing is going right for them. Ronaldo is not scoring, though he has been sensational in the last encounter against Real Sociedad with a hat trick. Kroos-Modric chemistry isn’t working, and specifically the right wing has left vacant. Despite of Carvajal or Asensio’s lap overs, this region of the Madrid attack has missed the Welsh ‘flash’ Gareth Bale. Bale, who has been one of the reason of Madrid’s previous year’s unbeaten success has suffered due to hamstring injury throughout the season this time. Though he had been a class in those times he got to play with 6 goals and 1 assist in 9 La Liga matches.
