Happily for Amorim, the Europa League has been one slightly brighter spot in the Red Devils’ underwhelming season. They finished third in the league phase and are the only unbeaten team left in the competition, while their opponents come into this tie reeling from 1-0 and 4-0 defeats to Real Madrid and Barcelona in their last two matches.

Manchester United's season is on the line as they head to Spain to face Real Sociedad kicking off the round of 16 of the Europa League. After being knocked out of the FA Cup, winning this competition will be United's only chance at European soccer next season but also their form hasn't shown that they'll be able to turn things around to actually win Europa League.
