Manchester United are aiming to qualify for the quarter-finals against Real Betis, leading 4-1 overall.

Erik ten Hag has chosen a strong starting lineup, including Facundo Pellistri, who is making his first appearance.

Although the hosts have demonstrated their determination to stage a comeback early on, with Juanmi nearly scoring after taking advantage of Harry Maguire’s sluggishness and David de Gea saving Joaquín’s attempt.

So far, Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes have not had a significant impact on the game, and a last-minute scramble resulted in Pellistri’s shot being cleared off the line. In the second half, Rashford spearheaded United’s attack, and after missing two easy chances, he eventually scored a stunning long-range goal.
