Omonia Nicosia vs Manchester United TV channel and live stream details plus Europa League team news

Manchester United will attempt to bounce back after their derby day horror show with a Europa League away assignment.

Erik ten Hag's side were easily swatted aside 6-3 by Manchester City on a day to forget. There is a quick chance to rectify that with their third group stage match, away at Cypriot outfit Omonia Nicosia who are bossed by former Celtic manager Neil Lennon.

United started their campaign with a 1-0 defeat at home to Real Sociedad but bounced back with a 2-0 win away at Sheriff Tiraspol last time out.

Ahead of matchday three, here is all the info you need to know.

What are the odds?

United are firm favourites to make it two Europa League wins on the bounce, with thepools.com chalking an away win up at 1/5.

The hosts, who have lost both games so far, are priced at 12/1 to seal their first win. The draw is 11/2.

Early team news

Ten Hag is likely to shuffle his pack with the likes of Casemiro and Cristiano Ronaldo expected to return to the starting line-up.

United will also assess the fitness of central defensive duo Raphael Varane and Harry Maguire before making a call on whether to include them or not.

Nicosia, who qualified for this competition after winning last term's Cypriot Cup, have a clutch of British players in their ranks including former Celtic pair Adam Matthews and Gary Hooper as well as ex-Man City wideman Brandon Barker.
