9 min: Nice linkup play between Rashford, Martial and Greenwood ends with the latter poking a shot at goal inside the box, but he can't generate enough power to trouble the goalkeeper.

9 min: Rashford does indeed go for goal, hitting it flat and with plenty of power. But he drags his shot well wide of the left post.

8 min: Martial is bundled over as he collects the ball on the turn around 30 yards out from goal. Rashford looks like he might shoot from the free kick..

6 min: Pogba hasn't taken long to find his range. He sends a driven crossfield pass out to Wan-Bissaka, who in turn finds Fred. The midfielder's diagonal ball into the box is met by Fernandes at the back post, but his header back across only picks out a Copenhagen defender.

3 min: An inswinging Fernandes corner is headed away by Wind. United will hope to start quickly, but it seems like the kind of humid weather in Cologne that could impact the tempo of the game.

2 min: Copenhagen ease into the game with a spell of possession, before going direct and working the ball up to teenager Daramy. He's dispossessed just outside the United box, and Solskjaer's side get their first feel of the ball.

Jonas Wind is probably the dangerman for Copehagen. The 21-year-old scored twice and provided an assist in his side's 3-0 win over Istanbul Basaksehir last week, and has generally impressed in his role behind the striker.

Sergio Romero gets the nod again in goal for United, keeping his place in the Europa League. "He played really well on Wednesday and I didn't see any need to change," Solskjaer said of the Argentine. David De Gea will watch on from the bench this evening.

And here's what Solbakken has had to say in the buildup to tonight's game: "We need a bit of luck. We maybe need a United that doesn't fire on all cylinders. We need to be perfect defensively. We need to take that one or two or three chances we get during a game like this. The chances are not great but it's an advantage for us that it's over 90 minutes and not 180 minutes."

Copenhagen manager Stale Solbakken - formerly in charge of Wolves - is familiar to Solskjaer. The two played together for Norway in the 1990s, and remain good friends, so much so that Solbakken invited his former teammate to Copenhagen during his first spell as head coach of the club, with the aim of helping Solskjaer in his own development as a manager. There is a mutual respect between the compatriots, so United should be well guarded against complacency tonight.

United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, speaking to BT Sport: "We're here to win the tournament, but you've got to go one game at a time. We know it's one of the biggest games of Copenhagen's history, so it'll be a hard game. We don't want to let ourselves down by having the wrong attitude. Hopefully we can have the majority of the ball and make them run without it. I know it's much harder to be without the ball in heat like this."

The last time these two sides met was back in 2006, in the Champions League group stages, and Copenhagen had enough to pull off an upset. Former Aston Villa striker Marcus Allback got the only goal as United were humbled in the Danish capital, left to reflect on a result that very few saw coming.

It's not the usual two-legged Europa League quarter-final tonight. Instead, the remainder of the competition will be played as single knockout ties in Germany, starting tonight at the RheinEnergieStadion, home of Bundesliga team FC Koln. It's different, and strange, but the change of format in both the Europa League and Champions League certainly makes things interesting. United would normally be overwhelming favourites to overcome Copenhagen, though the Danish side will have hope that, in a neutral venue and a one-off game, they can produce a shock result.

United make six changes, then, after their second leg victory over LASK last time out. That was a game which, given their 5-0 lead on aggregate, allowed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to rest key players. Today, though, it's back to full strength. Wan-Bissaka, Pogba, Fernandes, Rashford, Martial and Greenwood all return to the starting XI.
