If you watched Manchester United slump to a 2-1 defeat to FC Midtjylland, you'd be forgiven for thinking that the Danish champions are pretty handy when it comes to racking up the goals.

They might have only scored twice past Sergio Romero, but the Argentine had to be on top form to keep it at just a double. As it turns out, the Danes aren't exactly prolific when it comes to European football - as shown by the following stat. United are only the third team to concede more than a single goal away at Midtjylland since 2008. The other two teams? The New Saints and Bangor City. https://twitter.com/OptaJohan/status/700405684882575360
