Ten Hag's 50th game in charge. Bruno and Casemiro on a tightrope, a yellow for either would mean missing the second leg. Very important to get an advantage to bring to Spain next week. 2-0 Martial brace.

Yep big game, surely Casemiro comes straight back in, will Eriksen start, i think he might, Bruno might be moved to the right and Sabitzer keep his place too

Casemiro hopefully will come through without a booking but he`s got the Roy Keane mentality where he goes in fully committed without thought for the consequences.
We need a strong midfield for this game and Eth has to get the balance right.

If so might be best booking in this game rather than the next one? |

Yellow cards are wiped clean after this round, the below was on the BBC before our Betis tie Casemiro is the only Manchester United player walking a disciplinary tightrope in the first leg of their last-16 Europa League tie against Real Betis this evening. Needing to accrue three cautions to be suspended, the Brazilian was booked in both legs of last month's play-offs against Barcelona. There are a number of United players currently on one caution including Fred, Tyrell Malacia, Diogo Dalot, Bruno Fernandes, Harry Maguire, Alejandro Garnacho, Luke Shaw, Raphael Varane and David de Gea. In the Europa League, all yellow cards expire on completion of the quarter-finals, potentially four games away for Erik ten Hag's side.
If they beat the La Liga side, they will enter the draw for Europa League quarter-finals and semi-finals, scheduled for Friday, 17 March. |

Would say play Casemiro tonight and have him go at it, if we're 2/3 up for the second leg we should be fine. |

The midfield should be very strong for this one, which will really help (obviously). You’d imagine Martial is the key here. When he’s on it, he is a serious talent and boy do we need him in Rashy’s absence. I’d have been confident of a couple of goals lead going to Spain but with him out any kind of win will do. They’ve had a bit of a new manager bounce, nothing serious but still something. So the tie got a lot harder over the last few weeks.
However, win this and I think the trophy is ours.

As long as the weather doesn't cause Martial to fall apart before the match, we should be in a good position to win this even without Rashford.

It has been a shame with Martial, because he has looked up for it in games and been very effective in short bursts obviously as he's been constantly injured . ETH may have been the one to get the best out of him and with Rashford in top form too, they could have been really great this season!.
We shall see, but we really need others to start stepping up with goals the next few weeks. Midfield as people are saying will be a massive lift.
