Galatasaray vs. Manchester United, 2012 Champions League: Lineups

Galatasaray care. Manchester United really don't. That means it's fun training time for Sir Alex Ferguson's kids, who are apparently playing in some sort of 4-4-2 midfield diamond featuring Nick Powell at the tip and Darren Fletcher at the base. So that'll be interesting. With the hosts even with Cluj on points after four matches, beating United, who have already guaranteed top spot in Group H, would be a major step towards qualifying.

Galatasaray (4-4-2): Fernando Muslera, Albert Riera, Dany Nounkeu, Semih Kaya, Emmanuel Eboue; Nordin Amrabat, Felipe Melo, Selcuk Inan, Hamit Altintop; Johan Elmandar, Burak Yilmaz.

Substitutes from: Ufuk Ceylan, Cris, Caglar Birinci, Yekta Kurtulus, Engin Baytar, Emre Colak, Umut Bulut.

Manchester United (4<4>2): Andres Lindegaard; Alexander Buttner, Michael Carrick, Phil Jones, Rafael da Silva; Darren Fletcher, Anderson, Tom Cleverley, Nick Powell; Danny Welbeck, Javier Hernandez.

Substitutes from: Sam Johnstone, Scott Wootton, Marnick Vermijl, Ashley Young, Larnell Cole, Federico Macheda, Joshua King
