Real Sociedad vs Manchester United. Which team will take first place in the group?
On Thursday, November 3, the match between Real Sociedad and Manchester United will take place at the Anoeta Stadium in the sixth round of the Europa League group stage.
Real Sociedad are doing well this season in the Europa League, having won all five matches in the group stage of the tournament. But even such a cool result has not yet provided the team with the first position in the quartet: for this, it is important for the Spaniards not to lose in the last round.
In the first round match, Real Sociedad played disciplined at Old Trafford and managed to win sensationally as an underdog. Now the Spanish team will play in their own stadium, and the support of local fans will be an important factor for the hosts this evening.
Manchester United
The Red Devils rehabilitated themselves after the defeat in the first round, winning four matches in a row and retaining the chances of first place in the group. It is important for Eric Ten Hag's team to take exactly the first position in order to get a more convenient opponent during the playoff round draw.
Manchester United are in good form and have beaten several top rivals in the Premier League. Of course, the Premier League in this segment of the season is a priority tournament for the team, but for such an important meeting in the Europa League, the Dutch coach will certainly release his strongest players.
