United have been in irrepressible form lately and have surged to the top of the Premier League with six wins in seven matches , After wrapping up all three points on match day 1, Manchester United play host to a Wolfsburg side who were not only prolific in the German Bundesliga last season but they also finished as the eventual champions, beating the likes of Bayern Munich and Hamburg to the crown. United can also boast a league title after winning the English Premiership last term, so not only are the two early frontrunners in Group B going at it but we also have a battle of the champions as England clashes with Germany once more.It was imperative that United came into this tricky fixture with a victory behind them and they certainly secured a well earned win at the weekend when they took on an awkward Stoke City. United had to work extremely hard for all three points but it was a veteran who changed the game as Ryan Giggs, at 35 years of age, stole all the plaudits as he set up both Dimitar Berbatov and John O’Shea for United’s two goals. The funny thing is he probably won’t start against Wolfsburg as Fergie has generally opted for pace down the flanks this season but the Welsh International shown his manager that he certainly has what it takes to not only play at the highest level but also make the difference.The same list of Injuries with Van der saar still out and Dokitor Ast Hargreaves



Wolfsburg may not be in the form they showed in the second half of last season to stun Germany and win the Bundesliga but they have enough attacking talent to cause problems for the United defence.
After winning the first two league games of the season, Wolfsburg lost to Hamburg, Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen but appear to have found their form in recent weeks. Wins over CSKA Moscow in the Champions League and Bundesliga victories over Schalke and Hannover have boosted confidence in new coach Armin Veh although they were on the receiving end of a shock DFB Pokal defeat to FC Koln last week.Edin Dzeko was one of the most sought-after strikers in Europe in the summer and it will be a major surprise if the Bosnia-Herzegovina striker is still at the Volkswagen Arena next season. His record of 12 goals in 19 internationals also suggests he is most at ease at the highest level and could be a striker to put some money on for the World Cup Golden Shoe if Bosnia-Herzegovina make it to South Africa.
So far this season Grafite is slightly outscoring Dzeko, as he did last season. The Brazilian striker became only the sixth player to score a hat-trick on debut in the premier competition in Europe with his triple against CSKA Moscow on Matchday 1. After a sell selling bin-liners early in his career, Grafite is coming good late on and is an outside bet to be included in Dunga’s World Cup squad.
Wolfsburg have a good track recent track record away from home, they lost only once in four games played away in last season's UEFA Cup and earned a very creditable draw with AC Milan.

This will be very tough. Wolfsburg have very capable strikers that can cause problems. But it will also be impressive to see if their defense can handle our attack.

Wolfsburg are fully capable of capitalizing on any slip ups. ManU cannot afford to make the kinda mistakes they were making against Citeh.
Tricky opposition for ManU, but they should be able to handle their biz.

Re: Champions League: Man United - Wolfsburg (2-1) On Wednesday 30th September 2009 by aieromon(m): 10:01am On Sep 30, 2009
How will Martins score when he's not gonna play?
The coach should not play him else he wants to suffer an embarassing defeat from us.
We're winnin' this match by hook or crook.forget that Wolfsburg are the German champions.they are a low team with no UCL experience.
