MUFC defeated Bayer Munich 1999 in final.

The Red Devils today, have a uphill task to stop the German Bundesliga winners in a Champions League tuesday night tie.

A lot of speculations have been made, which see Bayern Munich as victors of the quarter-final two-legged tie, but , can history come to play? As we flash back to 1999 where Sir Alex Ferguson’s side(Manchester United) snatched away the victory of European Cup from the Bavarians.
Although Pep Guardiola has met the English side before, even beating them in a Champions League final, could this be an edge?
The Champions League provides United’s only remaining hope of silverware in David Moyes’s debut season but they can take heart from the way they overcame a two-goal deficit by beating Olympiacos 3-0 at Old Trafford last time out.
