Manchester United will be looking to get back to winning ways when they face Viktoria Plzen in the Europa League on Thursday.

Ruben Amorim is preparing his side for the trip to face a side who, like United, have yet to be beaten in this season's Europa League. Plzen have beaten Real Sociedad and Dynamo Kyiv in this season's competition, while they've drawn against PAOK, Ludogorets and Eintracht Frankfurt.

It's not going to be easy for United on Thursday night but a win would see them take a huge step closer to qualifying for the next stage of the competition without the need for an extra qualifying round.

Ahead of a big game for Amorim and his side, here's a look at the latest United headlines.
