Manchester United XI vs Fenerbahce – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

Manchester United will take on some familiar faces at Fenerbahce this evening, as the Red Devils face off against a former manager and players.

Jose Mourinho awaits in Istanbul in a clash packed full of narrative, while the Turkish team also boast ex-Manchester United midfielders Fred and Sofyan Amrabat in their side.

Erik ten Hag’s team have made a poor start to the season in the Premier League and their European exploits have followed suit. United have drawn each of their opening two Europa League games, having been held at home by FC Twente before blowing a two-goal lead to draw at Porto.

Fenerbahce have taken four points from their opening two European fixtures but have had a disappointing start domestically. Mourinho’s men are fourth in the Süper Lig, eight points behind Galatasaray with a game in hand.
