Manchester United successfully navigated the first hurdle of their hazardous Champions League group by defeating Paris Saint-Germain in France last week.
But the second test against Bundesliga leaders RB Leipzig at Old Trafford on Wednesday night could be equally as hazardous for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Leipzig were hugely unpopular in Germany when they were bought by drinks company Red Bull in 2009 as part of a franchise that includes teams in Salzburg and New York.
Nonetheless, there is little doubt the upstarts look here to stay and last season’s run to the Champions League semi-finals – beating Tottenham and Atletico Madrid along the way – was another important step in their development.
