Europa League: Manchester United, Juventus, Arsenal Seek Q/Final Slots on GOtv

 



 Italian giant, Juventus, will be keen to take advantage of their 1-0 lead over Freiburg, when they visit Germany for the second leg of their Europa League clash on Thursday. 


Angel Di Maria continued his fine form in Europe’s second tier competition by scoring the only goal of the game to extend his tally in the competition to four. The Bianconerri will need to put up another solid defensive display in Germany to reach the last eight. 


Juventus will be without Paul Pogba who has been injured again for four weeks. The Frenchman has only made two appearances totalling 35 minutes since his return to Turin from Manchester United in the summer. Tune in SuperSport Football (Ch. 31) at 6:45pm to watch the match.


Meanwhile, Real Betis has a tough job at home to overturn a 4-1 deficit against Manchester United, when the two teams meet for the return leg of their clash at the Benito Villamarin Stadium.


Ayoze Perez’s goal was the only consolation for the Spanish team on a night where the Red Devils dominated in front of Old Trafford faithful, courtesy of goals from Marcus Rashford, Antony, Bruno Fernandes and Wout Weghorst.


Manuel Pellegrini will be hoping to inspire a comeback against a familiar opponent on Thursday. Watch the game live on SuperSport La Liga (Ch. 32) at 6:45pm.



Still on Thursday, Arsenal have all to play for at the Emirates Stadium for the return leg of their Europa League clash against Sporting CP. The Gunners were held to a 2-2 draw away from home last week.
