The Red Devils are back in Europe's premier club competition after two years away and will be determined to hit the ground running after a slow start to Michael Carrick's first full season at the helm.

Man Utd have taken just four points from their first three Premier League games but a big night at the Theatre of Dreams could be just what they need to kick-start their campaign.

It's set to be a historic game for Sabah, who have reached the League Phase of the Champions League after winning the Azerbaijan Premier League last term.

They will relish a first game against Man Utd and a first trip to Old Trafford, having won nine of their 11 fixtures this season.

Radio Times has rounded up everything you need to know about how to watch Man Utd v Sabah on TV and online.
