Fenerbahce vs Manchester United LIVE!

Jose Mourinho was sent off as Manchester United drew their third successive Europa League game away to Fenerbahce. Christian Eriksen’s first-half strike was cancelled out by Youssef En-Nesyri’s header just minutes into the second half to give Mourinho something to cheer against his former side. After a hugely disappointing start to his Fenerbahce tenure - with his side sitting fourth in the Turkish Super Lig amid mounting early pressure - Mourinho will be happy with a point against Erik ten Hag’s men.

Ten Hag will find it increasingly difficult to defend another failure to win in Europe, with United now winless from their last six games on the continent - something the club haven’t done since the early 1980s. The Dutchman may be content with a point in a difficult environment in Istanbul, but it was another opportunity not taken against a substandard Fenerbahce team.

United will quickly turn their attention to a Premier League trip to West Ham on Sunday as they look to build on their promising 2-1 win against Brentford last weekend. Antony may be an injury casualty from this game having been taken off on a stretcher late on in Turkey. Follow all the post-match reaction in our dedicated LIVE blog below!

Eriksen had struck United ahead in the first half when he applied a nice finish to a well-worked team move.

But En-Nesyri latched onto a lovely ball from Allan Saint-Maximin just minutes into the second half to equalise for Fenerbahce.

Fenerbahce 1-1 Man Utd

21:51 , Jamie Dickenson

90+2 mins: With five minutes of stoppage time given, neither side really looks like finding a winner. Maybe there will be one final chance for someone?

Diallo receives the ball on the right wing and gets absolutely clattered by Muldur. Free-kick United... but it comes to nothing.

21:18 , Jamie Dickenson

58 mins: It looks like the Mazraoui No10 experiment is over and we can say it didn’t work. He’s at left-back now.

Ugarte comes in late to help Mazraoui defend Osayi-Samuel and catches him late, but despite lots of rolling around from the player and protestation from the Fenerbahce bench the ref hasn’t given it.

Jose Mourinho has been given a red card for his protests and is now watching from the stands.

Fenerbahce 0-1 Man Utd

20:22 , Jamie Dickenson

20 mins: A poor pass from Mazraoui concedes possession for United in midfield and Fenerbahce fashion a chance through Dusan Tadic, but his long-range shot is easily gathered by Onana.

Mazraoui move surprises pundits

19:48 , Jamie Dickenson

Paul Scholes and Owen Hargreaves have been left stunned by Noussair Mazraoui playing as a No10.

“I’m confused, I think his explanation was confused, I hope Mazraoui understands better what he’s got to do tonight than I do,” Scholes said on TNT Sports.

“I found that difficult to understand, I don’t see him as a No10 to bring the game together, I think Eriksen is perfect for that, I played against Eriksen years ago when he played No10 and he was brilliant, I think it’s his best position, the manager might be right, I hope he is right.”

Owen Hargreaves added: “It’s a massive surprise, every United fan seeing that will be thinking ‘Mazraoui is a ten?’ but maybe he sees something, he knows him from Ajax, he must have something up his sleeve.

“I’m with Scholesy, hopefully it goes well but it’s a huge surprise for everyone.”

Mazraoui playing at No10

19:39 , Jamie Dickenson

Okay scratch that, Erik ten Hag has revealed a major surprise with Noussair Mazraoui playing in the No10 role tonight.

Wow, first time he’s played there for United then...

United formation

19:18

It looks like Erik ten Hag has opted for three central defenders ahead of goalkeeper Andre Onana in the shape of Victor Lindelof, Matthijs De Ligt and Lisandro Martinez, with Noussair Mazraoui and Diogo Dalot given license to get forward as wing-backs.

United have just Christian Eriksen and Manuel Ugarte in central midfield, with Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford on the wings and Joshua Zirkzee up front.

Mourinho hopes for United title reprieve

18:53 , Jamie Dickenson

Jose Mourinho says he hopes Man City are stripped of their Premier League titles, as it will mean he won the league with Man United and would earn a winners’ medal and a bonus from his former club.

City are currently embroiled in a legal battle with the Premier League over multiple alleged competition rules breaches between 2009 and 2018 and if found guilty could face demotion down the English football pyramid.

It has been suggested that City's many titles and trophies won during the nine years the alleged offences took place are not in danger of being taken away, but Mourinho joked that he could be awarded another Premier League winners' medal for the 2017/18 where his United team came second to City.

"As you know, we won Europa League, we finished second in the Premier League," Mourinho said.

"I think we still have a chance to win that league, maybe they punish Man City with points, we win that league. And then [United] have to pay me the bonus and give me the medal!"

Thomas gets Frank on United job

18:07 , Jamie Dickenson

Brentford manager Thomas Frank has said moving to a bigger club “would not make my life better” but admits a new job could be a “challenge I need” amid links to Manchester United.

Frank was a candidate to replace Erik ten Hag in the summer and continues to be linked with a move to Old Trafford.

But Frank has stressed his commitment to Brentford and said he is already at “one of the best clubs in the world”.

United face ghosts of their past in Turkey

17:48 , Jamie Dickenson

Manchester United take on Fenerbahce with Erik ten Hag, once again, in desperate need of a victory to both ease the pressure on his position and kickstart his side’s Europa League campaign. To do so, they will have to vanquish several ghosts of their past in Istanbul, notably Jose Mourinho.

The Special One - who took over the Turkish giants in the summer - is ready to “welcome” his former club and Ten Hag to town. Mourinho told reporters at his pre-match press conference that he “wishes the best to Man United since the moment I left”, but getting one over them, as he has with Porto and Real Madrid, would surely make him smile.

This clash will not only see Ten Hag come up against his most significant (post-Ferguson) predecessor, but two midfielders he used, and disposed of, at Old Trafford: Fred and Sofyan Amrabat.

The former midfielders are joined by a collection of ex-Premier League stalwarts fitting of any Turkish side in recent memory, including several with previous against United, namely, and ominously, Edin Dzeko.

Fenerbahce vs Man United prediction

17:42 , Jamie Dickenson

Given United have scored three goals in each of their last four European away games but not won any of them, goals and a draw seem like the most likely outcome.

That’s what we’re going with here, as Erik ten Hag’s latest attempt to build momentum is slowed down by the Special One and his motley crew.

2-2 draw.

Fenerbahce team news

17:41 , Jamie Dickenson

Fenerbahce left-back Jayden Oosterwolde ruptured his ACL against Samsunspor last weekend and joins Cengiz Under (groin), Ismail Yuksek (shoulder), Bright Osayi-Samuel (foot) and Irfan Can Egribayat (muscle) on the sidelines.

The likes of Filip Kostic, Oguz Aydin, Bartug Elmaz and Levent Mercan have all been left out of the club’s Europa League squad.

Fenerbahce boss Jose Mourinho could replace Oosterwolde with either Mert Mulder or former United midfielder Fred at left-back, with Alexander Djiku moving over to right-back.

If Fred is used in midfield he could line up alongside his former Old Trafford team-mate Sofyan Amrabat, while former Newcastle winger Allan Saint-Maximin could start on the left as Youssef En-Nesyri and ex-Man City striker Edin Dzeko battle for the lone striker role.

Man United team news

17:31

Erik ten Hag is facing a mounting injury list ahead of Manchester United’s clash with Fenerbahce.

Kobbie Mainoo and Harry Maguire remain out, as do long-term absentees Luke Shaw, Leny Yoro and Tyrell Malacia.

Casemiro will need to be assessed after coming off towards the end of the 2-1 win over Brentford, while Mason Mount is yet to feature since a clash of heads against Tottenham and has been ruled out here too and Jonny Evans has not travelled.

Manuel Ugarte is an option to come into the side, with Bruno Fernandes suspended after picking up two yellow cards in the 3-3 draw at Porto last time out in the competition.

Predicted Man Utd XI (4-2-3-1): Onana; Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez, Dalot; Eriksen, Ugarte; Rashford, Diallo, Garnacho, Hojlund.
