The first leg ended Granada-Manchester United 0-2. All is set for the decider in this Europa League Quarter-finals fixture!

It's no vacation for neither United nor Granada as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Granada have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2400 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

The UEFA Europa League, abbreviated as UEL and commonly referred to as just the Europa League, is an annual football club competition organised by UEFA. It is the second-tier competition for football clubs in Europa, beneath the UEFA Champions League in value and importance. Teams qualify through their performance in their national leagues and cup competitions. Some teams qualify from the Champions League; more precisely the teams who are knocked out in the playoff qualifying round and the third-place finishers of the group stage. The winner of the Europa League qualifies for the Champions League in their next competitive season.
