UEFA Champions League: Manchester United vs Juventus - Combined XI

Left winger: Cristiano Ronaldo

Ronaldo is coming home!

This is going to be his second trip to the Old Trafford as a visiting player since leaving Manchester United in 2009, and would fancy his chances against his former side. He was, after all, on target for Real Madrid in 2013 in a 2-1 win.

Ronaldo has shrugged off the early season wobbles to come to life at Juventus, as he's now scored 5 and assisted 4 for his new team. However, he'd be raring to open his account in Europe and what better opportunity to do it than against his beloved former employers?

Right winger: Federico Bernardeschi

The 24-year old brings so much firepower to Juve's attack

Bernardeschi hasn't nailed down a spot in the starting XI yet, but whenever he started, has been unquestionably good. The Italian has been played across several positions by Allegri, but that hasn't affected his output and instead, stands with two goals and an assist despite starting only twice in the league.

But when it comes to European games, he started against both Young Boys and Valencia, impressing on both occasions. His eye for the pass and ability to pick out with pinpoint crosses have caught attention and may start again on Tuesday.

Striker: Mario Mandzukic

Mandzukic often shows up in big games

The Croat has got off to the new season in the same fashion that he ended the last - with a glut of goals, though he hasn't fired in the Champions League this season despite starting both of Juve's games. But you can bet against his scoring chances here at your own peril.

Mandzukic has established himself as a big game player and came up with the goods in games like this. And now with Higuain gone and Ronaldo helping more creatively, his output is only set to amplify by a notch or two. The hosts are going to have a tough time containing him.
