The Champions League is realistically the only trophy still available to Manchester United, but Pep Guardiola's Bayern Munich have been in fine form this season, unbeaten in the Bundesliga and having won every match at home in that competition.

United manager David Moyes can take some solace from the fact that the only two clubs who have prevented Bayern from winning at home this season were both English - Manchester City actually won 3-2 at the Allianz Arena while Arsenal achieved a 1-1 draw in the last round.

The two clubs were involved in the famous last-gasp victory for United in the 1999 Champions League final, but Bayern took the honours last time they met, in the 2010 quarter-finals, when Arjen Robben's volley at Old Trafford made it 4-4 on aggregate to send the German side through on away goals.
