Manchester United are back in action in the UEFA Europa League this week as they take on Granada at the Los Carmenes Stadium on Thursday. Manchester United have been impressive under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer this season and hold the upper hand going into this game.
Granada find themselves in ninth place in the La Liga standings at the moment and have slumped over the past few weeks. The Spanish outfit suffered a 3-0 defeat against Villarreal last week and cannot afford to slip up in this game.
Manchester United, on the other hand, are currently in second place in the Premier League standings and have exceeded expectations so far this season. The Red Devils have plenty of attacking talent in their ranks and will want to secure an emphatic victory in the first leg in Spain.
