This Thursday, Manchester United receives Club Bruges on the occasion of the round of 16 return from Europa League. Both teams want to access the next round.
Considered one of the favorites of this Europa League, Manchester United upheld the hierarchy during the group stage by finishing in 1st place in group L, ahead of Alkmaar, Partizan and Astana. Traveling on the lawn of Club Bruges last week, the team preserved a good draw (1-1) and could even have hoped for more with the appearance of the match. 5th in the Premier League, 3 units behind 4th place, the Red Devils can still believe, despite a large irregularity, in qualifying for the next Champions League. After 3 games without a win (2 losses and 1 draw), they reacted by winning on Chelsea lawn (0-2) and against Watford last weekend (3-0).
With only 3 points taken, Club Bruges took 3rd place in group A of the Champions League, behind PSG and Real Madrid but ahead of Galatasaray. Supported by its supporters last week, the Belgian team conceded the draw, a lesser evil considering their opponent’s domination, against Manchester United in the first leg of these 16th finals of the Europa League (1-1). Leaders of their championship with 9 points ahead of 2nd place, the partners of Vanaken are doing well on the national scene. Unbeaten in the last 13 days, they remain on a victory acquired at home against Charleroi last weekend (1-0).
Manchester United is lessened by the injury absences of Pogba and Martial executives and substitutes Tuanzebe, Fosu-Mensah and Grant. Anthony Martial is thus the main offensive asset of the Red Devils while winter rookie Bruno Fernandes scored his first goal in his new colors last weekend.
For Club Bruges, the excellent Senegalese international Krepin Diatta and the very young defender Van der Brempt (17) are on the flank. Midfielder Vanaken’s metronome and forwards Tau and Dennis are readily available.
Superior to the outward leg, Manchester United can this time count on the support of Old Trafford to win against Club Bruges.
