The first leg result was 1-1, which means that a goalless draw would take Mourinho's men through to the Europa League quarter-finals. However, the tie is wide open as away goals could come in to play as we saw yesterday for the blue side of Manchester. Ibrahimovic is elegible for Mourinho and Rooney and Martial are out as expected.
