Manchester United face another glamour pre-season friendly as they take on Paris Saint-Germain in Sweden.
Fresh from a win over Atletico, Man Utd now face the European champions looking for another competitive encounter two weeks out from the start of the new Premier League season.
There should be a first appearance for summer signing Youri Tielemans, having been afforded extra time off following Belgium’s run to the World Cup quarter-finals.
This is PSG second and final pre-season friendly, before they take on Aston Villa in next week’s UEFA Super Cup. They lost 3-0 to Mallorca in their first run-out.
Date, kick-off time and venue
Manchester United vs PSG is scheduled for a 4pm BST kick-off on Saturday, August 8, 2026.
The match will take place at Ullevi Stadium in Gothenburg.

Manchester United vs PSG team news
Manchester United remain without Kobbie Mainoo, Lisandro Martinez and Marcus Rashford, who are still all on leave following the World Cup. Striker Benjamin Sesko remains out injured, along with Manuel Ugarte, Karl Darlow and Matthijs de Ligt, while Senne Lammens and Matheus Cunha are ill.
There is better news for Michael Carrick, with Tielemans, Bruno Fernandes, Diogo Dalot and Noussair Mazraoui all back in contention. Summer signing Tielemans should make his debut.
Bryan Mbeumo is expected to continue up front after scoring twice against Atletico Madrid, though 15-year-old JJ Gabriel has dropped out despite making his first senior appearance last weekend.
Luis Enrique's side head into the fixture after a 3-0 defeat by Mallorca, where several academy players featured. Illia Zabarnyi and Lucas Beraldo completed the full match, while Khvicha Kvaratskhelia made his return.
Marquinhos, Nuno Mendes, Joao Neves and Vitinha have resumed training and could feature, although Achraf Hakimi remains a doubt. Bradley Barcola, Desire Doue and Ousmane Dembele are also nearing their returns after the World Cup.
Manchester United vs PSG prediction
Manchester United should fancy their chances of picking up an eye-catching victory, with PSG likely being without a number of key players.
Michael Carrick will hope his squad are building some momentum after back-to-back pre-season victories, and another in Gothenburg will raise confidence ahead of the Premier League season.
Man Utd to win, 2-1.
