Manchester United Preview

Manchester United Predicted Lineup - Andre Onana; Noussair Mazraoui, Lisandro Martinez, Matthijs De Ligt, Diogo Dalot; Casemiro, Manuel Ugarte; Marcus Rashford, Bruno Fernandes, Alejandro Garnacho; Rasmus Hojlund

Man United have failed to win any of their games in the Europa League thus far. They have picked up three draws against Twente, Porto and Fenerbahce. This leaves them 21st in the table and in a playoff spot as it stands. They have no choice but to win this game with the pressure well and truly on them at this point.

To be fair they have scored five goals but are let down by their defensive ability. This is the complete opposite to their league campaign really. If they can keep the ball out of the net against what is a weaker opposition though surely a win is on the horizon.

But can Van Nistelrooy pick up United’s first Europa League campaign win? A first win in Europe in over a year for the Red Devils?
