Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has chosen a three-man back-line of Victor Lindelof, Eric Bailly and Chris Smalling for the Red Devils' Champions League clash with CSKA Moscow.
The Portuguese has been known to switch his side into a three-man defence against sides which play a similar formation and he has again added a third centre-back to his team for the clash at the VEB Arena on Wednesday.
