Preview:

Expect a thrilling atmosphere at Stade Olympique Lyonnais when Lyon and Manchester United face each other in the Europa League quarter-finals, first leg. Les Gones aim to claim a major scalp, but they will have a big fish to fry in Thursday’s clash. Ernest Nuamah limped off with injury in a 2-1 win over Lille, with Rayan Cherki likely to step up.

The Red Devils, on the other hand, head into the match following a goalless draw with their local rivals Man City. As Ruben Amorim’s men produced a fine display in the Manchester derby, especially in the second half, we predict that they are going to beat Lyon in the first leg. Centre-forward Joshua Zirkzee is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while both Kobbie Mainoo and Matthijs de Ligt should be fit for Thursday’s showdown. In their last meeting in a competitive match (Champions League), back in 2008, Manchester United defeated Olympique Lyon 1-0.
