Only a handful of teams are left in the competition as they all look to book their places in this year's Europa League Final in Bilbao at the San Mames Stadium on May 21st 2025. Manchester United will host the Spanish side at Old Trafford in a blockbuster match-up. Will an English team progress to the quarter-finals, or will it be Imanol Alguacil's Sociedad? There's still plenty of time to get your hands on tickets to find out.
Manchester United won the Europa League on a single occasion in 2017 when they beat Ajax 2-0 in Stockholm. In recent years, the club has gained more experience in the competition, and Ruben Amomrim will be hoping to take the side all the way to the final. United did finish third in the overall table before progressing to the last 16, so they'll be looking to continue that winning mentality.
