UEFA Europa League draw LIVE Manchester United and Arsenal to discover group stage opponents

Manchester United will discover their 2022/23 UEFA Europa League group stage opponents this lunchtime.

The Europa League group stage draw will be made at 12pm BST and we'll bring you live updates from the draw in this dedicated live blog. United will be hoping to go all the way in the competition this season after losing in the Europa League final in 2020/21.

United played Villarreal in that final in Gdansk but the Reds lost on penalties. Cristiano Ronaldo has been synonymous with the Champions League throughout his career but he'll be playing in the Europa League this season if he doesn't secure a move away.

Regardless, United's squad is strong enough to mount a challenge to win the Europa League and fighting for the trophy will be high on Erik ten Hag's agenda this season. Ten Hag has previously led Ajax to the semi-finals of the Champions League.
