Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has admitted he is pleased about the hectic fixture schedule as it provides the Reds with plenty of opportunities to return to form.

Erik ten Hag's side were thrashed 7-0 by Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday, so United will be desperate to return to winning ways when they face Real Betis on Thursday night.

The Reds welcome the Spanish outfit to Old Trafford for the first leg of their Europa League last-16 tie. It will be the first time that United have come up against Betis in competitive action, although the two sides did clash in a friendly match during the World Cup break.

Ten Hag's men will have played six times this month by the end of March, and while it is clearly a test for the players, Rashford spoke positively about the busy period.

"For me, whenever we do lose a game, you just want to be back out on the pitch as quickly as possible.
