Romelu Lukaku is in scintillating form right now. Everything he touches turns to gold and this is the reason why Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, as well as every United fan, deserves to be optimistic.

The Belgian has a fantastic combination of speed and power that can unsettle even the best of defense. Putting his physique in the mix makes things very interesting, but of late, Lukaku has fiercely improved his finishing abilities and has displayed a knack for goals that has won him a million more fans.

The United No. 9 is coming into this game on the back of two morale boosting goal scoring exploits. Lukaku scored four goals in his last two games - a brace each against Crystal Palace and Southampton. In both these games, he was the prime source of inspiration for his team and as such, he has to start through the middle against PSG.

A two point attack of Lukaku and Rashford could also work well. If United want to win this game, they need to put pressure on the PSG backline to the point of breakdown and Lukaku is perhaps their safest bet at that.
