CSKA Moscow will set up to beat Manchester United by playing on the break at Old Trafford, says boss Leonid Slutsky

CSKA Moscow manager Leonid Slutsky says his side will play a counter-attacking game against Manchester United in a bid to take something from the Champions League encounter at Old Trafford.


Both sides have four points from three matches in Group B and they are two point behind the leaders, German side Wolfsburg. 
United drew 1-1 in Russa two weeks ago and go into the match in faltering form, having draw their last two Premier League games 0-0 against Manchester City and Crystal Palace, either side of a penalty shoot-out defeat at Old Trafford to Middlesbrough in the Capital One Cup.

But there is no danger of Slutsky underestimating United ahead of the clash.
'Manchester United is now a completely different team than in the 2009/2010 season. 
'I can not say which is better selection, but Manchester United will always be Manchester United. It remains a club of excellence' Slutsky said on the UEFA website.
'There is a big difference in tactics, but Manchester United remain a top-class team.'
'In the Champions League we are trying to do it as good as possible and we will do our best to move forward. 
'It is clear that Manchester United is very good in possession and all I can say is that we will play on the break. Manchester United is a team that can score at any time, at any club whatsoever.'
