Man United vs Real Sociedad Prediction & Lineups: Best betting tips at Old Trafford
Manchester United will bid to book their place in the Europa League quarter-finals when they lock horns with Real Sociedad tonight at Old Trafford, live on TNT Sports at 8pm.
The honours were shared in the first-leg after the teams played out a 1-1 draw in Spain with Joshua Zirkzee's opener cancelled out by Mike Oyarzabel's penalties.
A winner must be found tonight though with our best bets, the starting lineups, and betting offers all featured below.
Manchester United vs Real Sociedad Predictions
United have endured an incredibly difficult and frustrating campaign but the one positive they can take from the season so far is their performances in the Europa League.
The Red Devils were the only team to emerge from the League Phase with an unbeaten record and after holding La Real to a 1-1 draw in Spain, they can win this tie without the need of extra time in Manchester.
United held Arsenal to a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford at the weekend and results at home have been improving. Ruben Amorim’s men have won four of their last eight at home across all competitions and have only lost twice in normal time during that run.
Sociedad’s away form has been poor for some time, as they have lost each of their last five La Liga trips and have won just two of their last 11 inside 90 minutes on their travels across all competitions, suggesting United can make home advantage count.

Man United’s upturn in form has unsurprisingly coincided with a purple patch for skipper Bruno Fernandes.
The Portugal international opened the scoring in San Sebastian last week and he looks good value to repeat that trick in the second leg at 24/5.
Fernandes has three goals in his last five games and in six of the last seven matches in which he has scored, he’s been the first United player to grab a goal.
With United backed to win, it seems more likely that one of the home players will open the scoring and Fernandes looks a solid option.
