With Manchester United already securing top spot in UEFA Champions League group H, attention turns to the battle for the second qualifying spot.

Galatasaray hold that position and they welcome United to the Turk Telekom Arena in Istanbul. They have four points and travel to Braga in their final group game.

But their chances of victory over United have been boosted after Alex Ferguson's men left a host of stars at home. Wayne Rooney, Robin Van Persie and Patrice Evra are among those rested.

United's squad also includes seven players yet to play in Europe including summer signing Nick Powell. Braga and Cluj meanwhile, will look to boost their own qualification aspirations when the two meet in Romania.

Cluj have to travel to Old Trafford in their final game and that will increase the pressure on the Romanian champions to secure a positive result against Braga. While Braga know a win against Cluj will keep alive their last 16 hopes, before the Primeira Liga outift welcome Galatasaray to Portugal for their final group game.
