Man United vs Real Sociedad: Kick off time today, prediction, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results

Manchester United will hope to continue their upturn in fortunes against Real Sociedad in the Europa League tonight.

Erik ten Hag’s side appear to have turned a corner of late and certainly have the quality to make a deep run into Europe’s secondary club competition, with a home test against Spanish opposition up first.

The sight of Cristiano Ronaldo playing in the Europa League is difficult to ignore. While United look to have moved on from their reliance on the 37-year-old, the Champions League’s record goalscorer seemed hell-bent on moving to a team playing within its confines all summer.
