Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United have arguably one of their toughest Europa League tests this week as they take on habitual winners Sevilla.
The Red Devils welcome the Spanish side to Old Trafford on Thursday evening as they attempt to lift their second trophy of the season. United have already claimed the Carabao Cup this term with victory over Newcastle at Wembley in February.
They will be aiming to add a European honour to that growing collection against yet more Spanish opposition. Ten Hag’s side have already battled with LaLiga pair Barcelona and Real Betis in the competition this term.
United managed to squeeze past the Catalans with a 4-3 aggregate success after winning at Old Trafford. They then managed to get past Betis after 4-1 and 1-0 wins to secure their place in the quarter-finals.
They are unlikely to find it as easy this time around though as they come up against the record Europa League winners. Sevilla have lifted the trophy on six occasions over the last two decades - the last time coming in 2020 as they overcame Italian giants Inter Milan in Germany.

Despite a rotten season in LaLiga with just eight wins to their name this term, they have already managed to get past both PSV Eindhoven and Fenerbahce on their route to Old Trafford.
