Two giants of the game or should we say two struggling giants of the game. Kovac's start to his reign at Bayern have been mixed with fans being divided about his ability to manage a club of Bayern's stature but he still has the backing of the board. Bayern finds themselves third on the Bundesliga table 9 points behind Dortmund but they did manage to top their Champions League, as expected from a team of their calibre.

Manchester United is having a much worse start to their season than Munich. Mourinho's men lie sixth on the Premier League table and find themselves 19 points behind leaders Liverpool but their win against Juventus in Turin shows Mourinho still has some tricks up his sleeves for a big European encounter.

It'll be interesting to witness a game between two giants who are going through a tough season and might be the right match for each other. This encounter can be decided by fine margins and this might not be the most exciting match to watch but tactically it will be a delight for football fans.
