MANCHESTER UNITED make the long trip to Kazakhstan to face Astana in the Europa League.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and co are already ensured off a place in the knockout stages, but can edge closer to securing top spot with a win in Nur-Sultan.

They will not only be the chilly Red Devils – with temperatures set to drop to a frosty -12 – but also the early birds, with their kick off time set for 3.50pm.
Why are Man Utd playing at 3.50pm?
Europa League matches normally start at either 5.55pm or 8pm – just like the Champions League.
United will be kicking off their match at 3.50pm because of the time zone in Kazakhstan.
While many Red Devils fans will still at work in the UK, it will be well into the night at the Astana Arena with a six-hour time difference.
That means the game will start at 9.50pm in Kazakhstan – and would be complete before the other fixtures get underway.
This is not the first time Uefa have had to move a game, with Arsenal seeing their clash at Vitoria changed to 3.50pm on a Wednesday.
This was because local rivals Braga were also playing at home and the police in the area would have been stretched too thin to cover both matches on the same day.
The time was also set so it would not clash with the Champions League matches.
