Zorya vs Manchester United Preview
Zorya are without regular left-back Eduard Sobol who is suspended after being sent off against Fenerbahce. Artem Sukhotsky is likely to be ahead of Grygory Yarmash in the pecking order to replace him here. On the other side of the defence, skipper Mykyta Kamenyuka is injured and will be replaced by Evgeniy Opanasenko.
Man Utd are still without injured defenders Chris Smalling and Luke Shaw, so it’s expected that Eric Bailly will make his return. Michael Carrick, Matteo Darmian, Antonio Valencia, Memphis and Morgan Schneiderlin have not been included in the squad while Bastian Schweinsteiger is ineligible. Timothy Fosu-Mensah looks set to start at right-back and Wayne Rooney will be fresh after missing the Everton match through suspension.

Zorya vs Manchester United Prediction
Zorya are in terrible form at the moment, with no win in their last 6 outings. The hosts have only pride to play for here, as they cannot improve on their position at the bottom of the table. They have failed to win their previous 7 Europa League matches and it would be something of a shock, if they were to come out on top in this match.
Manchester United were once again made to pay for not killing off the game when they conceded a late penalty at Everton last time out. However, their general play has been good in recent weeks and the easy 4-0 win over Feyenoord last time out in this competition means that just a point will see them through here.
Despite their bad form, Zorya have tended to find the net of late and it’s interesting that there have been over 2.5 goals scored in Man Utd’s last 3 Europa League games. United are unbeaten in seven matches against Ukrainian opposition and have enough quality to extend that sequence here, without running away with the game.
