Storylines

Manchester United: This is one of those games where they can rest several key starters, keep them on the bench in case things get hairy, while giving minutes to some young players. We will likely see several backups start this game, and unless Sociedad go up 2-0, United can likely cruise through without anything to worry about.

Real Sociedad: They need a minor miracle. If they conceded one goal, they are going to need five to advance. This feels over already, but it will definitely be over with one goal. Expect them to take chances, get forward in numbers and go for an early goal to build momentum. If they don't get a goal in the first half an hour, they are done.

Prediction

The Red Devils hold serve and advance easily. Pick: Man United 1, Real Sociedad 1
