Manchester United are 7-1 third favourites to win the UEFA Europa League ahead of Monday's draw for the knockout stages of the competition.
The draw, which will contain a total of 16 clubs, will take place at 12pm GMT in Nyon, Switzerland. United missed out on top spot in Group E, despite winning five of their six matches and beating section-toppers Real Socieded in the final round of matches, meaning they must navigate their way through a two-legged play-off fixture to reach the last-16.
The competition has a very different shape to it after some of the biggest names in European football - like Barcelona, Juventus and Ajax, all dropped down into the Europa League having finished third in their Champions League groups. Barcelona have been made 9-2 joint favourites, along with Arsenal.
The eight clubs who finished as runners-up are the seeded teams and will have the advantage of being at home in the second leg. The ties are not scheduled to take place, however, until February.
Following the conclusion of those ties, the play-off winners will enter the main last-16 draw and be pitted against one of the eight Europa League group stage winners. That draw will take place on Friday, February 24.
