AC Milan vs Manchester United: how and where to watch - times, TV, online
All the info you need to know on how and where to watch the AC Milan vs Manchester United Europa League match at San Siro (Milan) on 18 March at 21:00 CET.
AC Milan and Manchester United will go head-to-head again in the second leg of their Europa League last-16 battle at San Siro.
It’s one of the most interesting fixtures of the round, not just because of the historic background of both clubs but also because the two sides played out a 1-1 draw in their first encounter at Old Trafford and everything can happen in Italian soil.
A draw that tasted as a defeat
One week ago, United were the first to score thanks to a header by Amad Diallo, but what it seemed to be a valuable win for ‘The Red Devils’ became a last-minute draw with Simon Kjaer's goal for Milan that left a bitter taste in the mouth for United fans
I Rossoneri are having a solid Serie A championship, but it looks like their long-awaited hope of winning the Scudetto is disappearing as the league goes on as they lost to Napoli 0-1 at San Siro in their last game.
Stefano Pioli’s men fell nine points behind city neighbors and rivals Inter Milan, who top the league comfortably with 65 points.
United like playing away
Meanwhile, Manchester United are also sitting second in the Premier League standings, with 57 points, one more than Leicester City. As it happens in the Italian league, in the English championship the two first spots belong to teams from the same city, as Manchester City top the table with 14 more points than Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men.
The positive view for United is that they have had a remarkable away form this season, being unbeaten in their last 12 matches on the road.
'Ibra' might not ready to play, Cavani and Pogba ready
Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who has just earned a recall to the Sweden national team, might not be in time to play against his former team. The striker, 39, missed out the first-leg due to a thigh problem.
Hakan Calhanoglu and Theo Hernandez were also unavailable for the first showdown but they will be back.
Ante Rebic could feature from the start, as Rafael Leao is doubtful with thigh issues, while Alessio Romagnoli and Davide Calabria remain also a doubt for the match. Mario Mandzukic and Ismael Bennacer will both miss the crucial game against the English outfit.
Franck Kessie, with a good performance at Old Trafford, will probably play alongside Soualiho Meite.
The visitors will be able to call upon Edinson Cavani, Paul Pogba and Donny van de Beek, as they have all travelled to Italy after overcoming their injuries.
Anthony Martial, who didn’t play against West Ham, and Eric Bailly won’t be available this time.
David de Gea is back with the group after he completed his quarantine returning from Spain, but Henderson could be in between the sticks for this crucial game.
