Real Sociedad XI vs Manchester United – Predicted lineup | OneFootball

Real Sociedad make the trip to Manchester United in a huge Europa League tie tonight.

Amid disappointing domestic campaigns for both teams, Europe offers an avenue to a successful season. The contest is evenly poised after a 1-1 draw in San Sebastien last week. Mikel Oyarzabal scored from the spot to level the tie after Joshua Zirkzee’s opener for Manchester United.

Sociedad are without a win in four games across all competitions but will take encouragement from their last visit to Old Trafford. Brais Mendez got the decisive goal from the penalty spot during a Europa League group stage clash in September 2022.
