Manchester United travel to face Real Sociedad in a crucial Europa League encounter tonight.
The LaLiga side hold a three-point advantage in Group E going into the game, having claimed a 1-0 win at Old Trafford to open the competition back in September.
With head-to-head records and then goal difference the tiebreaker in Europa League groups - La Real currently hold the advantage in both - United need a two-goal win in Spain to claim top spot.
Finishing first would be vital for either side as it would provide a bye for the round-of-32 knockout between the runners-up and the teams eliminated from the Champions League.
