The last hope? Manchester United has a strong will to win and can't afford to lose or advance with a narrow victory[yuyi]

At 4 a.m. Beijing time on Friday, March 14th, Manchester United will host Real Sociedad in the second leg of the Europa League round of 16 at home. In the first leg, Manchester United drew 1-1 with their opponents away from home. This time, the two sides are back on the same starting line to face each other again. According to the win, draw and loss data released by the official sports lottery, Manchester United, playing at home, has an advantage and is expected to win and advance to the quarterfinals.

Despite the arrival of a new manager, Amolin, Manchester United has not improved this season. They have dropped to 14th place in the league and have been eliminated from both the FA Cup and the League Cup early. A few days ago, Manchester United's chairman, Ratcliffe, publicly stated that the team has huge financial problems. And if they fail to qualify for European competitions next season, it will be an even greater blow to the current Manchester United. Therefore, the Europa League is their last hope for this season. Despite a poor performance in domestic competitions, Manchester United has been a completely different team in the Europa League. This season, they have remained unbeaten in 9 games with 5 wins and 4 draws. At home, they have achieved an outstanding record of 3 wins and 1 draw, demonstrating a very strong performance.

Real Sociedad's recent performance has also been unsatisfactory. They have only drawn one and lost three of their last four games. After losing at home to Sevilla this weekend, their league ranking has dropped to 11th place. Moreover, Real Sociedad's away performance has been even worse. In the last six away games, they have won only one and lost five, scoring four goals and conceding 14. It can be said that they are unable to score or defend. Now, with a draw at home in the first leg, Real Sociedad will find it hard to make a difference when visiting Manchester United's Old Trafford in the second leg.

In the first leg of their encounter, Manchester United took the lead with a goal from Chilkze. However, Real Sociedad equalized from the penalty spot and the game ended in a 1-1 draw. Throughout the match, the two sides were basically evenly matched. In this match, Manchester United will return home. Facing an opponent who is not good at away games, they are bound to take the initiative.
