A thrilling showdown awaits as Manchester United prepares to meet Fenerbahçe in a crucial UEFA Europa League match on Thursday. The encounter, set to unfold in the iconic Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium in Istanbul, brings Erik ten Hag face-to-face with his ex-boss, the renowned Jose Mourinho.
Ten Hag is riding on a wave of relief following a solid 2-1 win against Brentford in the Premier League. This victory provided a much-needed boost after some underwhelming performances in the continental tournament, where Manchester United settled for draws against FC Twente and Porto. Despite this, any setbacks in their forthcoming match could reignite pressure on the Dutch manager.
Meanwhile, Fenerbahçe is enjoying a purple patch under Mourinho’s leadership, having maintained an unbeaten streak that includes a solid win over Union SG and a draw with Twente. The Turkish team’s last Europa League encounter against Manchester United dates back to 2016, when, ironically, Mourinho led the English side to a defeat against Fenerbahçe.
The match kicks off at 10 p.m. local time in Turkey, 8 p.m. in the UK, and 3 p.m. in parts of North America. Fans worldwide have multiple viewing options, with Paramount Plus serving U.S. audiences and TNT Sports handling UK transmissions. Canadian viewers can tune in via DAZN. For those in global regions with restrictions, using a VPN to access legitimate streaming services remains a viable option.
Get ready for an electrifying match that promises drama, excitement, and possibly redemption for Manchester United on the European stage.
