Young Boys vs Manchester United
Uefa Champions League 2018/19
Venue: State de Suisse
Date: Wednesday, 19 September, 2018
Kick-off: 8pm BST

Jose Mourinho is bidding to win the Champions League for a third time as Manchester United's campaign opens against Young Boys.

Mourinho has lifted the famous trophy twice before - at Porto and Inter Milan - but has not won the competition since 2010.

United brought Mourinho in to restore them to Europe's top table, and while the Red Devils may not have backed the manager in the summer transfer window, there will be no excuses if United do not start Group H with an away win over the Swiss champions.
