    Manchester United host LASK in the Europa League last 16 this evening as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side look to finish the job against the Austrian outfit.

    In the first leg in March, United emerged 5-0 winners thanks to goals from Odion Ighalo, Dan James, Juan Mata, Mason Greenwood and Andreas Pereira.

    It would take an almighty miracle for LASK to overturn the deficit and secure a quarter-final place, but Solskjaer will still want his team to put in a strong performance and maintain momentum in the competition.
