Manchester United are looking for their first Europa League win of the season as they travel to Porto this week.
Erik ten Hag’s team will certainly be regarded as one of the favourites for the Europa League before a ball is kicked this season, but they had a disappointing start, managing only a 1-1 draw against FC Twente.
FC Porto are also searching for their first win after suffering a defeat away to Bodo/Glimt. However, there is no doubt that the pressure is on United.
Ten Hag will be desperate for a result, so we will definitely see a strong lineup, meaning that players like Lisandro Martinez and Matthijs de Ligt will keep their places in defence, and Alejandro Garnacho and Bruno Fernandes should start in attack. Rasmus Højlund is pushing for a start after recovering from his injury, so keep an eye on him.
