Check out how to watch Man Utd v Villarreal in the Champions League this week, including TV and live stream details, team news, predictions and odds.
Manchester United head into a grudge match with Villarreal at Old Trafford as Champions League fixtures on TV return this week.
United were defeated by Villarreal in the Europa League final following an epic penalty shootout earlier in 2021, a result which saw the Spanish side qualify for this season’s Champions League.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men secured Champions League football based on their Premier League performance last season and fate paired the sides once more in the group stages.
United have struggled in the last two weeks with three defeats out of four games in that time. They were humbled by Young Boys, West Ham and Aston Villa in the Champions League, Carabao Cup and Premier League respectively.
Solskjaer faces increased pressure, particularly as he boasts Cristiano Ronaldo at his disposal, but a victory here would go some way towards putting his team back on the right rails.

Our prediction: Man Utd v Villarreal
Villarreal will rock up to Old Trafford with ‘Europa League winners’ badges emblazoned on their shirts, and United players must harness any residual frustration to motivate them further in this one.
The La Liga side has drawn five of its six games in the league so far this term. They’re one of just four undefeated sides in La Liga after six games.
United have struggled for goals aside from Ronaldo since his arrival. Jesse Lingard is the only other United player to find the net as well as Ronaldo since CR7’s dazzling debut display.
Finding the right balance with him in the team will be crucial to success in 2021/22
Our prediction: Man Utd 1-1 Villarreal (15/2 at bet365).
