Manchester United are missing a number of key players for the second leg of their Europa League quarter-final tie with Sevilla.

Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane, the first-choice defensive pairing, sustained injuries in last week's first leg at Old Trafford, while midfield magician Bruno Fernandes is suspended after earning a third booking of the season.

A groin problem picked up in the warm-up before Sunday's 2-0 win at Nottingham Forest means Marcel Sabitzer is a doubt, and Marcus Rashford is in a race against time to return from a groin injury, but Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia and Scott McTominay could be available.

The tie is evenly poised at 2-2 after late own goals from Tyrell Malacia and Harry Maguire cancelled out Marcel Sabitzer's brace.

Sevilla's home form in La Liga has been poor this season, although they are unbeaten in four games since José Luis Mendilibar replaced Jorge Sampaoli in the dugout last month.

Sevilla v Man Utd prediction

A late collapse in the first leg means Manchester United have a trickier assignment in Sevilla than it looked like being for a lot of last week's match at Old Trafford.

Despite the potential for the late own goals to sap morale, the Red Devils delivered a commanding performance at Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Sunday, which should give them plenty of confidence.

Sevilla may not be the force of old but they boast a proud record in the Europa League and will make this a testing tie.

The absence of Fernandes, Martinez and Varance could prove crucial, although there is enough talent in Erik ten Hag's ranks to suggest they should squeak through.
