Of course, it looks like the attacker are finding the right momentum currently. They both scored in their last EPL match which is a sign of improvement in them. I am always worried about United attacking force due to the incapacity of scoring goals, but it seems things are changing gradually. If the attackers can do their work effectively and keep the goals coming, stopping Lyon from scoring wouldn't be a problem.
Lyon are also not very good in Ligue 1 so it will not be that difficult to beat, what Manchester United need to do is find a weak point and they need to score early goals to put pressure on Lyon. But the problem is as you said because Manchester United's front line is not showing its best quality at all so it is much more difficult for them to score early goals.
Not to mention talking about the defense which may not be fully able to play the core players and still looks so struggling to perform consistently so the space for Lyon to score early goals is also quite open.
Yep. United has bounced back nicely of late and they will risk everything to play in the quarter-finals Europa League.
Some people call Lyon a mediocre team, but a reminder that Rayan Cherki will be Lyon's main man in the Europa League quarter-final against Manchester United. He has all the talent and technical ability to succeed. Best young talent from France in my opinion
Also, playing at home in the first leg will be an advantage for Lyon.
