Disappointing eleventh in the Premier League after a mixed start to the season,
Manchester United still struggling to make its standing respected on the British scene. Capable of beating teams within its reach while being slapped by the big guns of the championship, Erik ten Hag’s team blows hot and cold. In this context, can the Europa League be beneficial for this institution of European football?
This competition remains, after all, Manchester United’s last continental title. It was in 2017, with a certain José Mourinho on the bench and Paul Pogba as the spearhead. Much water has flowed under the bridge since then, but Man United will still be a seed for this new Europa League formula. First test this Wednesday evening with the reception of the Dutch team Twente.
The expected compositions
Manchester United : Onana — Mazraoui, Maguire, Martinez, Dalot — Casemiro, Ugarte — Antony, Fernandes, Rashford — Hojlund.
Twente : Unnerstall — Van Rooij, Hilgers, Bruns, Salah-Eddine — Regeer, Eiting — Rots, Steijn, Van Bergen — Lammers.
Where to watch the match?
This Europa League match between Manchester United and Twente will be broadcast this Wednesday evening on Canal + Sport, from 9 p.m. It will also be possible to watch it on the group’s streaming platform, MyCanal.
