Real Sociedad vs Man Utd: TV channel, live stream, kick-off time, team news for Europa League Group E clash
MANCHESTER UNITED return to Europa League action with Group E top spot firmly in their sights – but leaders Real Sociedad have other ideas.
The Red Devils temporarily closed the gap on Sociedad having brushed aside Moldovan outfit Sheriff Tiraspol at Old Trafford.
But Sociedad restored their lead at the top of Group E with a convincing win over Omonia.
However, victory for United would see them leapfrog their Spanish opponents if the Red Devils were to score three with no reply.
And Erik Ten Hag will be desperate for his side to top the leaderboards as the group winners avoid the Champions League drop outs.

Elsewhere, Erik Ten Hag has some injury setbacks of his own as the United boss will continue to be without Raphael Varane, Axel Tuanzebe and Brandon Williams.
