How to watch Viktoria Plzen vs Manchester United: TV channel, livestreams, latest injury news

Manchester United and Ruben Amorim return to Europa League action this week as the Reds face Czech club Viktoria Plzen.

Ruben Amorim has had a mixed time at Manchester United so far since joining the club midway through November.

After drawing his first game against Ipswich Town, the new head coach led the team to back-to-back victories against Bode/Glimt and Everton.

Amorim warned people to not get too excited and suggested that difficulties would come for his side. Defeats against Arsenal and Nottingham Forest have proven him correct.

Despite the inconsistent results, the 39-year-old has been assessing his players and figuring out who fits where in his ideal setup.

His next challenge comes in the Europa League, where the Reds now sit 12th in the league table. Victory could see them move into the automatic qualification zone for the first time.

Further rotation is expected from Amorim in this game, with players like Leny Yoro and Manuel Ugarte likely to come out of the lineup after starting last time out.

Rasmus Højlund is also likely to be taken out of the team, with either Marcus Rashford or Joshua Zirkzee starting up front.

This game could also be an opportunity for young players to be involved. Godwill Kukonki could be involved after appearing on the bench at the Emirates Stadium last week.
