Held to a nil-all draw at Selhurst Park on Sunday evening, Man United failed to convert some key chances from Matthijs de Ligt, as well as Alejandro Garnacho and Bruno Fernandes seeing guilt edge chances hit the bar.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, looking to kick on and spur home a positive result tonight against FC Twente, United welcomed back Danish striker, Rasmus Hojlund into the fold in their most recent Premier League outing, with Uruguayan midfielder, Manuel Ugarte also expected to feature tonight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Set to rekindle his love affair with former Eredivisie champions, FC Twente tonight, finished his playing career with the side back in 2002, contributing an impressive 162 appearances for the side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And clearly holding the Dutch side in his heart, former captain, ten Hag claimed he will be difficult to \u201churt\u201d his former side as he guides Man United into UEFA Europa League action tonight.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFC Twente has brought me a lot,\u201d Erik ten Hag told assembled media<\/a> during his availability on Tuesday. \u201cI was put through their academy. I was part of the generation of the first youth team when the youth competition was started up again after many years, so for me there is a great deal of history there.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI would have preferred to play against someone else,\u201d ten Hag explained. \u201cIt is not nice to have to hurt something you love.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

And set to debut in their new league format for the UEFA Europa League this season, following tonight\u2019s pairing with FC Twente, United hit the road and fly to Portugal to take on FC Porto \u2013 a familiar foe from UEFA Champions League competition over the years to boot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that outing, Man United head to Turkey to take on Fenerbache, currently led by Jose Mourinho \u2013 the last coach to guide the Old Trafford side to a European cup win, before matchups with PAOK, Bodo\/Glimt, and a trip to take on Viktoria Plzen before Christmas.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In last season\u2019s UEFA Champions League outing for Man United, it proved one to forget in a big hurry \u2013 with the side finishing bottom of their tough group, which included both Bayern Munich and FC Copenhagen, losing 4 matches from their 6 outings, despite enjoying a free-scoring run in most outings.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
