Manchester United defender Eric Bailly backs his side's home form to help the Red Devils beat Benfica in Group A of the Champions League on Tuesday.

Manchester United centre-back Eric Bailly has backed the club's home form to help push his side towards qualifying for the knockout stages of the Champions League early when they face Benfica on Tuesday.

Jose Mourinho's charges have won all three of their Group A contests and can qualify for the latter rounds after just four games should they better CSKA Moscow's efforts against Basel.

"For me, they are a good team," Bailly told reporters ahead of the clash at Old Trafford. "The bad thing for them is they're not in such a good moment but that doesn't mean they'll just roll over for us tomorrow. We have to be cautious and get our fourth win.

"It's something very important. First that we win. It's an important game, this is our fourth in the Champions League and it's at home, and since we started we've not lost a single game at home.

"This is important for your confidence. I hope tomorrow's game everything goes well and we win and qualify."

United currently top Group A with nine points from three games.
