Prediction
Manchester United should be raring to go in pre-season – but this will be no easy task. Rosenborg are already deep into their season, currently sitting in eighth place in the Eliteserien, meaning their players will be fit as a fiddle.
The Red Devils are out of practice, and without key figures. Saying this – they should still have the quality to prevail.
