Club Brugge vs Man United live streaming, team news and Europa League preview

The UEFA Europa League knockout phase kicks off on Thursday, February 20 with Club Brugge vs Man United being the headline fixture on Day 1. Club Brugge host Manchester United in the first leg of Europa League Round of 32 on Thursday at the Jan Breydal Stadium in Bruges. With the draw pitting the might of Manchester United against a modest outfit like Club Brugge, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side enter the game as favourites. However, it would be a mistake to consider their opponents on Thursday as pushovers. They are unbeaten across all comps since their defeat to Real Madrid in the Champions League group stage.

They were handed comprehensive defeats in both those fixtures.
