Manchester United host Celta Vigo in the second leg of the Europa semi-finals this week and the Red Devils will be hoping to secure their place in Stockholm with another win.
Jose Mourinho’s men came away with a 1-0 win in the first leg and will be firm favourites to win here. Although their 25-match unbeaten run in the Premier League came to an end at the weekend, United are still superior to the La Liga outfit.
Celta Vigo were disappointing in the first leg and will need to be at their best to get something out of this game. They have lost five in a row coming into Thursday’s match and haven’t even scored in their last three. Meanwhile, United have never lost a UEFA two-legged tie after winning the first leg away from home.
