UEL: Saint-Etienne v Manchester United preview


Saint-Etienne v Manchester United preview

Ander Herrera will miss Man Utd's Europa League last-32 second-leg tie with St Etienne on Wednesday due to suspension.


Jose Mourinho's side travel to France for the 5pm kick-off with a 3-0 aggregate lead from their first-leg victory at Old Trafford last Thursday.

Herrera earned his third Europa League booking of the season against the Ligue 1 side, with Michael Carrick or Bastian Schweinsteiger set to fill in for the Spaniard.

Mourinho is likely to have one eye on United's EFL Cup final against Southampton on Sunday, live on Sky Sports, and could rest some of his first-team regulars against Saint-Etienne.

The French club suffered their third defeat in four games in all competitions on Sunday, losing 2-1 at Montpellier.
