Follow all the action as Manchester United host Granada in the second leg of their Europa League quarter-final tie.
United boast a commanding 2-0 lead from the first leg, with Marcus Rashford opening the scoring before a last-gasp Bruno Fernandes penalty put Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side in pole position to reach the semi-finals. If United take advantage of their commanding position, they will face either Ajax or Roma in the last four.
United come into the fixture in fine spirits after a 3-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur and Jose Mourinho on Sunday, with Fred, Edinson Cavani and Mason Greenwood all getting on the scoresheet. With just seven games remaining in the top flight, Solskjaer’s side are all but assured of Champions League football next season, however, the Norwegian is desperate to win his first piece of silverware as head coach. He will have to contend with plenty of absentees tonight, though, with Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw and Scott McTominay suspended, while Marcus Rashford is expected to sit out due to injury. Follow all the action live below:
OLE GUNNAR SOLSKJAER SPEAKS TO BT SPORT
"It's a knockout tie. We've got a good lead from the first half of the game, but I've seen stranger things happen. We're not gonna take any chances. The players are desperate to play. We just have to have a disciplined performance, make sure we're good on the ball, dominate the ball. I wouldn't want to sit here after the game knowing that we rested too many players. The players want to get to the semi-final, final, so we're ready. The team's getting better: we're getting more and more used to each other."
