Manchester United must wait on the fitness of Alejandro Garnacho after the forward was replaced late on in the Premier League stalemate with Southampton.
How Manchester United should line up vs Barcelona in Europa League second leg
23.02.2023 - 08:41 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Manchester United will need to pull out another impressive performance if they are to have any chance of knocking Barcelona out of the Europa League tonight.
Erik ten Hag's side are level as they host the La Liga leaders in the pivotal second leg following an enthralling 2-2 draw at the Camp Nou a week ago.
In terms of early team news, Marcel Sabitzer and Lisandro Martinez are available again following injury, but Anthony Martial has been ruled out.
This is how MEN writers think United should line up.

Bar an aberration at Arsenal, Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been in impressive form and it is a testament to his recovery in the last two months that he should start tonight.
Raphael Varane and Casemiro have to return and there is no need for Luke Shaw at centre half with Lisandro Martinez available again in Europe. Casemiro's presence means the ends could justify the means with Fred, who still made vital contributions in two error-strewn performances last week.
Jadon Sancho deserves to start.
Rich Fay
The best chance of winning comes from playing the best side, and Ten Hag shouldn't take any risks with his line up tonight.
Martinez and Varane should return in central defence and Wan-Bissaka gets the nod at right-back given he is the man in form in that position.
Casemiro is arguably the most important player on this United side, and Fred is crucial in big matches when they are out of possession.
Rashford has to start, and Weghorst brings much-needed energy and enthusiasm to the attacking line. It wouldn't be a surprise to see Fernandes repurposed to the right again, but Antony can make things happen out of nowhere.
