Upcoming Munich opener a repeat of 1998/99

Erik ten Hag's team will tackle one of his former clubs at the Allianz Arena, with the Bundesliga champions including spectacular striker signing Harry Kane in their ranks, in what should be an entertaining start to our latest European adventure.

The game is a repeat of the opening Champions League group fixture of the most thrilling season in United's entire history.

Back in September 1998, we had our first competitive meeting with Bayern after also being placed in a group containing Barcelona and Brondby.

The Reds also have a Danish side in our pool this time around, with Rasmus Hojlund's former club FC Copenhagen joining Galatasaray in Group A.
