Second leg coming up after 1-1 in the first.

Seems like Yoro has an issue so Heaven could come in for his first start - not sure on the status of Maguire’s injury.

Would suspect that we will perhaps start like we did yesterday with the exception of Yoro. Not sure about Ugarte but if he’s fit he would slot back in for Eriksen.

Hopefully we can keep up the little bit of the upwards trajectory form we have shown in the last few weeks.
 
Dorgu will be available so guessing that Maz will go into the back 3.

I think Hojlund will come back into the front 3 so maybe Bruno drops back into midfield. The midfield battle will be a bit different as I think Zubimendi is back for this one for them, he's a top class operator so you'd expect they'll keep the ball a bit better in this one.
 
Probably our biggest game of the season to date at this point. A nice European knock out win at home could give this lot a real boost.

With the first 60 minutes of the game away last week you'd have to say this is a game we actually go in to as favourites.
 
Was a funny game last week they seemed to come to life after they made some subs against our tiring side. I remember Sevilla doing that to us a few years back when they beat us over the two legs.

If Utd get that spell in this one they have to really kill the game off with a couple of goals and not leave the door open for them.

Europe is everything now for us if we go out of this the season is done as there's nothing really to play for.
 
Ugarte back in training today.

No Maguire or Yoro

I thought initially he meant Mainoo, but after more consideration I believe he means Ugarte.

This game needs put to bed in 90 mins. Doubt we win if it goes any further.

Bruno back in midfield again.

Cas, starting this one is probably understandable.
 
We can't press, and we can't beat a press.

Seems a couple of major problems with this team
 
Forward totally bought that penalty. I thought it was supposed to be clear and obvious? So soft.
 
Think that’s their 3rd penalty against us in the last 4 games.

Haven’t even managed to get in front of the tv yet ffs
 
I was thinking the exact same thing. They bought their pen though, so it's rightly back to a draw.
 
It wasn't, the Sociedad player was trying to climb all over Hojlund, he simply shrugged him off.
 
Looked like Dorgu was just offside in the build up.

Hojlund getting a goal ruled out by VAR would probably hurt him more than the miss.

Still needs to be finishing that chance.
