How to watch Fenerbahçe vs Manchester United: TV channel, livestream, kick-off time, latest team news

Manchester United’s focus turns to the Europa League this week as they face Turkish side Fenerbahçe in their third European outing of the season.

Erik ten Hag’s side need to build on their 2-1 win against Brentford and have a difficult clash against some familiar faces.

United will be coming against Jose Mourinho, Fred and Sofyan Amrabat on Thursday evening and it is a vital fixture after a poor start to their Europa League campaign.

The Reds failed to win either of their opening two fixtures against FC Twente and FC Porto, drawing both of those games.

That places Ten Hag’s men 21st in the new look 36-team league table. Only the top eight clubs move straight into the round-of-16, while those who finish between 9-24 are put into a play-off phase.
