ITV have selected Basel v Manchester United as their chosen fixture from the final round of fixtures in the Champions League group stage.
With the broadcaster’s only English option of that match or Manchester City v Bayern Munich, it makes sense to pick the winner-takes-all match in Switzerland over the City game, despite United looking the less attractive fixture on paper.
Manchester City require a victory over the German side, as well as Napoli to drop points against Villarreal to qualify, while a point will be enough for Manchester United against Basel.
Sky will televise the remaining 15 fixtures from the final round over the nights of the 6th and 7th November.
