Omonia Nicosia vs Manchester United LIVE highlights and reaction as Martial and Rashford score

Manchester United take on Omonia Nicosia away in Cyprus in the Europa League on Thursday night.

United were defeated in their opening Europa League group match against Real Sociedad, but Erik ten Hag's side bounced back to comfortably beat FC Sheriff 2-0 last month thanks to goals from Jadon Sancho and Cristiano Ronaldo in Chisinau.

Ten Hag will be aware of the importance of winning the Europa League group and he has picked a strong side, with Ronaldo and Casemiro starting the game against Omonia, who are managed by former Celtic boss Neil Lennon.

Omonia are currently fourth in the Cypriot first division and they have lost both of their Europa League matches this season. Regarding team news, Raphael Varane, Harry Maguire, Donny van de Beek and Aaron Wan-Bissaka are all sidelined with injuries.

That quartet have not travelled to Cyprus, which means Victor Lindelof and Lisandro Martinez are the only centre-backs in the squad.

David de Gea

Well beaten for the goal and otherwise had next to nothing to do in a game that United had nearly 80 per cent of the ball. 6

Diogo Dalot

Tidy enough without making much of a difference at either end as he continued his run of starting every game this season. 6

Victor Lindelof

Got outpaced a couple of times and was out of the picture for the goal but that was hardly his fault. 6
