When the two sides met in the first leg in the Netherlands, the hosts secured a famous 1-0 win over the Red Devils thanks to De Kuip’s winner. The embarrassing defeat was a wake-up call for Mourinho’s men – they beat Zorya by a solitary goal, Fenerbahce 4-1, and then lost 2-1 in Turkey in the return leg. Now the English giants have to beat their Dutch counterparts to avoid relying on mathematics in the final round of the competition to book a place in the next stage.

Team news
Man United
Jose Mourinho confirmed that Henrikh Mkhitaryan would be available for selection against the Dutch side. Zlatan could also lead the hunt for goals after sitting out over the weekend due to suspension. Phil Jones could also start at the back as Chris Smalling is injured.
Feyenoord
Eric Botteghin is suspended after being shown a red card against Zorya in their last match of this competition. Terence Kongolo could replace him. Kenneth Vermeer and Sven van Beek are also doubtful due to injury.
Match forecast
This is a do-or-die battle for both sides. But considering the fact that the Old Trafford outfit had already lost their away game to the minnows, a home defeat would be even more embarrassing. But the Red Devils will be buoyed by the fact that they have won all their home fixtures in this competition and the home fans could play a huge role in deciding who goes home with the three points.
WATCH: We cannot lose - says Mourinho
Mourinho’s men had a promising game against Arsenal last weekend and were unfortunate to share the spoils. They now have to put aside the fact that they have a poor record in the Europa League, having won only four of their last 12 matches in this competition. The visitors are expected to play a careful defensive game and catch the hosts on quick counter-attacks. It all depends on who blinks first here.
