Manchester United require only a point from Thursday’s final UEFA Europa League group-stage match against Zorya Luhansk and travel to Odessa, Ukraine, knowing a win could be enough to top their pool.

Manager Jose Mourinho’s side currently sit second in Group A and are just a point behind leaders Fenerbahce, who travel to third-place Feyenoord on Thursday after beating the Dutch team 1-0 in Istanbul back in September.
