Why Man United may face Champions League fixture reversal


By AFPMore by this AuthorNYONThe home leg of Manchester United's Champions League quarter-final tie could be reversed in the event of a clash with that involving Manchester City, depending on the outcome of Friday's draw, Uefa said on Thursday. The two Manchester clubs are through to the last eight alongside two other Premier League sides, Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool. Unlike in previous rounds, there is no longer any country protection in the draw, meaning teams from the same domestic league can now face one another. However, if they do not face each other, United will have to reverse their fixture if they are drawn at home in the same week as City. "Following a decision made by the relevant local authorities, Manchester City and Manchester United cannot play at home on the same night, nor on consecutive nights," said Uefa.
