Manchester United are the biggest name left in the Europa League but Sevilla will be keen on plotting a shock.
United did what they had to in league action on Saturday as they defeated Everton 2-0. It helps to keep them on course to finish inside the top four.
While they have won the Carabao Cup already, they are desperately seeking a repeat of their Europa League run from 2017.
Erik ten Hag’s side unbeaten at Old Trafford in 24 matches (W21, D3), a run that stretches back to September 2022.
While their last home loss came against Real Sociedad, they’ve avoided defeat in five competitive meetings against Spanish opposition (W4, D1) since.
Sevilla are the cup specialists and start at Old Trafford never having lost to the home team.
Things aren’t perfect as Jorge Sampaoli was fired over the international break with new boss José Luis Mendilibar arriving. He is yet to see his side lose in two matches.
Sevilla are looking to win the second-tier competition for a seventh time. They have bad away form though with just one win from their last eight away matches (D1, L6).
They were knocked out of this competition by English opposition last season (West Ham).
Bruno Fernandes is United’s most dangerous weapon in the competition, directly contributing to 17 goals in 24 appearances in this competition for the club (G9, A8).
