Real Betis striker Borja Iglesias says his teammates feel “confident” ahead of next week’s Europa League first-leg last-16 clash with Manchester United.
The forward has netted 10 goals this season and grabbed his fifth assist of the campaign upon his return from a finger ligament injury in last Friday’s 3-2 win over La Liga bottom club Elche. United will welcome Betis to Old Trafford on Thursday before the return trip seven days later.
It will be the first time the two clubs meet competitively but they did face off during United's training camp in Spain during December's World Cup break, which the hosts won 1-0 against a heavily depleted and rotated Reds side.
