Manchester United v Paris Saint-Germain

In simple terms, Manchester United have won their last four games, responding emphatically to back-to-back defeats by Arsenal and Istanbul Basaksehir that had once again shunted Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to the edge of the managerial precipice. But the devil is in the detail.

Only one of those victories, last week's 4-1 thrashing of Basaksehir, has been anything close to straightforward. The 1-0 win over struggling West Brom came thanks to a retaken penalty, and with extra fortune as when Albion won their own spot-kick the decision was controversially overturned by the VAR.

Those victories were sandwiched by come-from-behind triumphs at Everton (3-1) and Southampton (3-2), with the latter particularly dramatic as substitute Edinson Cavani single-handedly turned the game on its head.

United are erratic, of that there is little doubt, but in they actually played very well for much of their wins over Saints and Everton - Basaksehir were crushed in the first half. Now they face a Paris Saint-Germain side who have faired little better in the consistency department this season.
