Pressure on Man United

FRANKFURT, Germany (AP):

Bastian Schweinsteiger's return to Germany could be a tricky affair. Three-time winners Manchester United could be eliminated from the Champions League with a loss in Wolfsburg today. After a distinguished career in Bayern Munich, Schweinsteiger is now with Manchester United.

Wolfsburg lead Group B by a point over Manchester United, and only need a draw to advance to the knockout stage. But Dieter Hecking's team has to rebound quickly after a stunning loss in the Bundesliga to Borussia Dortmund.

Wolfsburg's 29-game unbeaten run at home came to an end in dramatic fashion when Shinji Kagawa scored Borussia Dortmund's winner in the 93rd minute, two minutes after Ricardo Rodriguez had equalised last Saturday.

A win would secure first place in the group for Wolfsburg.

United would also win the group with a victory and will advance if both group matches are drawn.

PSV Eindhoven host CSKA Moscow in the other match in the group. The Dutch team is a point behind United and will go through if it does better than Louis van Gaal's side thanks to its superior head-to-head record. If PSV win and the other game is drawn, PSV and Wolfsburg will be split for first place on overall goal difference as their head-to-head is equal.
