MANCHESTER UNITED return to Premier League action against Nottingham Forest on Sunday – and they’ll be determined to put their midweek drama behind them.
The Red Devils were in pole position for a Europa League semi-final spot courtesy of Marcel Sabitzer’s quick-fire double against Sevilla.
Until two moments of madness late on saw United throw away a two-goal lead, arguably swinging the tie in Sevilla’s favour.
However, Erik ten Hag will believe his side can make that abysmal display a distant memory against a team who they have got the better of on three occasions this season.
But the United gaffer has a injury dilemma on his hands with key players likely to be missing for this match.
