A chance for United with a corner from the right and it finds Harry Maguire free in the box but the United skipper can't keep his header down and over the bar it goes.

Nathan House: Who seriously didn’t have this down as a game United should play a second string and give the first 11 the extra 5 days rest and preparation for Copenhagen?

James: All the man utd fans moaning about the lineup, it's not far off the team that won the away leg 5-0. Relax

Stuart Mitchell: Seriously why are we complaining about this line up? We are 5-0 up for goodness sake. The main players have pretty much all played 10 games on the bounce (PL/FA) We play the next game NEXT MONDAY no better time to give the likes of Fernandes a rest.

Will we get another cracker from Odion Ighalo tonight? Good opportunity for him and plenty of the others in the United side.

LASK have got the ball in their own half early on.

John McMahon: Can't believe Maguire is starting, after playing every league game too. Relentless!

Lovenish Goel: Have a feeling Man Utd will lose 0-6 tonight

Off we go!

Big G: Are MU fans annoyed that they are 5-0 up? Sit back and relax.

Man Utd XI: Romero, Fosu-Mensah, Bailly, Maguire, Williams, Mata, McTominay, Fred, Lingard, James, Ighalo

Bench: Grant, Pogba, Martial, Rashford, Pereira, Bruno Fernandes, Greenwood, Wan-Bissaka, Matic, Garner, Chong, Mengi

LASK XI: Schlager, Andrade, Trauner, Wiesinger, Renner, Michorl, Holland, Ranftl, Balic, Raguz, Frieser

Bench: Lawal, Gebauer, Filipovic, Reiter, Ramsebner, Muller, Wostry, Haudum, Sabitzer, Celic

Inter Milan are set to complete the signing of Alexis Sanchez from Manchester United in the next 24 hours.

Sanchez has impressed during his season on loan at Inter and although there are doubts over the future of coach Antonio Conte, the Serie A outfit have continued talks and expect to have the Chilean available should they progress to the Europa League ‘final 8’ competition in Germany by beating Getafe tonight.

It is not known the precise terms of the deal but is almost certain to have involved United taking a significant financial hit.

The last eight Europa Leagues have been won by English or Spanish teams. Only once in the 10 years since the Uefa Cup was rebranded have another country's team lifted the cup.

Sevilla - who won it three times in a row from 2014 to 2016 - and 2017 winners Manchester United are the only former Europa League winners in this year's last 16.

Atletico Madrid (2010, 2012, 2018), Chelsea (2013, 2019) and Porto (2011) are the only other teams to win it.

Among the other favourites to win the tournament are Inter Milan, Bayer Leverkusen and Sevilla.

Schalke's Veltins-Arena in Germany is hosting tonight's game between Inter Milan and Getafe.

It's FC Copenhagen who are progressing to the quarter-finals after defeating Turkish champions Istanbul Basaksehir 3-0 tonight.

Manchester United are set to face them in the last eight.

Manchester United

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer speaking to BT Sport: "There's only two changes and one of those is forced as Luke [Shaw] is injured. Bruno [Fernandes] gets a rest.

"Hopefully we can have a good performance. We want to go to Germany with many players with confidence.

"Everyone knows they are valuable for us and we need some good performances here, so that they feel they can play in all the games in this tournament."

On the team staying in Germany for the knockout rounds after tonight's game: "Maybe it would be better for us to be in and round here and to travel before but that's what it is - it's a tournament and we're looking forward to it. First, we want to do this properly tonight."

On the younger players getting game time: "Let's get a good start and see if they can come on and show us what they can do".

Never in doubt. Three goals in four minutes for Shakhtar Donetsk who now lead 5-1 on aggregate against Wolsburg.

Travelling Monkey: Well I must say Ole, done a great job of resting players/giving youth a chance with that starting XI, absolutely magnificent - hopefully you acknowledge the sarcasm. Will say though, Fred, Bailly & (fading star) James need the minutes. Mengi, Chong & Garner 2nd half

Getting a sense that not many Manchester United supporters are too excited about tonight's game or starting line-up...

Winning the Europa League would be "massive" and a "big step forward" for Manchester United, says boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

"When I won my first trophy as a player it made me more hungry," he said.

"The team has developed through the season and we are delighted at finishing third in the Premier League.

"If we can get our hands on a trophy it's a big step forward."

United have not won a major trophy since beating Ajax in the 2017 Europa League final.

LASK's full club name is actually Linzer Athletik-Sport-Klub.

Just so you know.

The niche stat you needed this Wednesday evening...

Don't say that Simon!

I'll have to open a bag of Haribo earlier than planned.
