Manchester United returned to winning ways on Thursday night with a 2-0 victory over PAOK in the Europa League.

The Red Devils had a below-par opening half against the Greek outfit, and they could have easily conceded more than one goal.

PAOK lacked a cutting edge with their finishing. United capitalised after the break, with Amad Diallo scoring an impressive brace.

United will return to Premier League action against the Foxes tomorrow.

The game will be Ruud van Nistelrooy’s last one on interim charge. There is a possibility that he may not be part of Ruben Amorim’s backroom staff.

However, the Dutchman will want to end his temporary tenure on a high. United are the favourites to beat the Foxes at Old Trafford.

Van Nistelrooy may sign off by handing Jayce John Fitzgerald his debut.

The teenager has been part of the matchday squad for the last three games in all competitions but has been an unused substitute.

Van Nistelrooy seems impressed by the progress made by the youngster. The 17-year-old is a central midfielder but can operate in several other positions.

Fitzgerald will be hoping to make his senior bow off the bench if United are in a dominant position on Sunday.

The Foxes game is a must-win for the Red Devils. They are already six points behind the Champions League places and can’t slip up further by dropping more points.
