Manchester United have one foot in the Europa League final and will look to finish the job in the second leg of the semi-final with Athletic Bilbao.
United are 3-0 up on aggregate following a stunning victory at San Mames last week.
With Athletic missing several of their stars, Ruben Amorim’s men are heavy favourites to clinch their place in the final in Bilbao.
And the United boss has stuck with the same team that put them in such a dominant position.
