Manchester United take on Omonia Nicosia at Old Trafford on Thursday night as the Reds return to Europa League action.
Erik ten Hag would have been delighted with his side's 2-1 victory over Everton at Goodison Park on Sunday night. United showed resilience and commitment to come back from 1-0 down as they picked up all three points in a tricky Premier League fixture.
Antony scored his third league goal in as many games to cancel out Alex Iwobi's sumptuous curling effort from outside the box, before Cristiano Ronaldo got on the end of Casemiro's perfectly weighted through ball to score his 700th club goal. Despite the five-time Ballon d'Or winner making the headlines, the Brazilian midfielder was named Man of the Match for his commanding display against the Toffees.

The Reds have not played at Old Trafford since their 1-0 defeat to Real Sociedad on September 8, as Ten Hag's side look to record their third Europa League win of the season.
