Manchester United vs Athletic Bilbao live early team news and how to watch Europa League fixture
@Source: manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Manchester United will be aiming to wrap up their place in the Europa League final when they face Athletic Bilbao in the second leg of their semi-final tussle at Old Trafford this evening, kick-off 8pm.
United take a 3-0 aggregate lead into tonight's game after putting Athletic to the sword at the San Mames Stadium in Spain a week ago.
The Reds put one foot in the final via goals from Bruno Fernandes (2) and Casemiro, meaning they will be determined to avoid letting their advantage slip between their fingers.
Head coach Ruben Amorim, however, is refusing to take Athletic lightly, insisting his side "cannot take anything for granted" in his programme notes. He also said in yesterday's press conference that United must get themselves on the scoresheet this evening.
United will be without centre-back Matthijs de Ligt, who was forced off at Brentford with a suspected knee injury, but Amad will be pushing for a start after two appearances from the bench after overcoming an ankle injury.
