Both managers make four changes

Man United and Barcelona played out a thrilling 2-2 draw at the Camp Nou last Thursday and the two European giants face off again tonight to determine who goes through to the next round of the Europa League. 

Erik ten Hag’s side were brilliant in Spain last week and will be hoping to cause Xavi’s side as many problems as they did, and with the home crowd behind them and the absence of both Gavi and Pedri, things are looking good for the Red Devils pre-match.

The Manchester club were victorious again at the weekend beating Leicester 3-0 and Ten Hag has made four changes for tonight’s clash with Barcelona.

Lindelof, Dalot, Sabitzer and Garnacho all drop to the bench to make way for Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Casemiro and the in-form Jadon Sancho.
