Red Devils meet Erik ten Hag’s former club in first game of new-look competition
Manchester United vs FC Twente – LIVE!
Man United begin their Europa League campaign against Erik ten Hag’s side former side in Twente. The Red Devils will no doubt be expected to go deep into the new-look competition and European success would be some way for the Dutchman to respond to his seemingly constant critics once again.
Still, tonight does look something of a banana skin. United still sometimes do not convince and the opponents sit fourth in the Eredivisie table, heading to Old Trafford off the back of two consecutive victories.
Anything other than three points for Man Utd, however, would be an early blow for Ten Hag. They have tough tests to come in the rest of their draw and a victory at home would at least ensure this year’s continental campaign gets off to the best possible start.
