The Red Devils have already suffered two European defeats this season, making their task of reaching the last-16 incredibly tough.<\/p>\n<p>United are currently third in Group A after a win and two defeats in the Champions League. Victory over Copenhagen on Wednesday could put them in a more commanding position ahead of tough fixtures against Bayern Munich and Galatasaray.<\/p>\n<p>Ten Hag\u2019s team narrowly defeated the Danish outfit in the reverse clash at Old Trafford. But Scholes remains worried that the squad\u2019s fragility in away games will see them dumped out in the group stage for the fourth time in their last nine Champions League campaigns.<\/p>\n<p>Trips to Copenhagen on Wednesday and Galatasaray on November 29 could therefore be vital. Both clubs are known for creating hostile atmospheres inside their home venues.<\/p>\n<p>Asked if United will reach the last-16, Scholes told TNT Sports: &#8220;If I was a betting man, I\u2019d say no. They showed last year they\u2019re frail in away games, you think of Sevilla away. It was a brilliant atmosphere, it was hostile, they crumbled, they couldn\u2019t handle it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> <strong> READ MORE: <\/strong> <strong>Marcus Rashford is &#8216;not a good footballer&#8217; as Man Utd legend savages star again[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Man-Utd-Erik-ten-Hag-5055333.jpg?r=1699441379803\"><\/p>\n<p>The ex-midfielder added: &#8220;It makes me worry about going to Copenhagen, who aren\u2019t a brilliant team but they\u2019re organised. I don\u2019t know if there\u2019s the character and fighters in that team to be able to cope with a big atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s so hard going to Copenhagen, these European away games are tough. If they make it a hostile atmosphere, you have to worry about the frailty of Manchester United \u2013 they could really crumble under that pressure.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The harmony of United\u2019s dressing room has come into question following successive home defeats by Manchester City and Newcastle. However, Ten Hag insists that the team spirit was evident in last weekend\u2019s victory over Fulham.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Support fearless journalism<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Read The Daily Express online, advert free<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Get super-fast page loading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p> <strong> DON&#8217;T MISS&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Man Utd have &#8216;gone too far&#8217; with Sancho treatment as PFA backed to get involved[LATEST] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Man Utd could have three players poached by Saudi clubs including &#8216;leader'[GOSSIP] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Man Utd to drop big Raphael Varane hint today as Saudi clubs eye January move[COMMENT] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Erik-ten-Hag-Man-Utd-5055348.jpg?r=1699441379865\"><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am pleased with the spirit of the team and with the way we pressed,&#8221; the Dutchman said after the 1-0 victory on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We saw [a stoppage-time winner] against Brentford and we have seen it again.
