Sheriff's key player
Akanbi Rasheed has made it clear that he wants to contribute to his team's offense in the ongoing UEFA Europa League.
The Nigerian currently has one goal and one assist this season, so his performance will be crucial in his team's bid for victory this afternoon.
United's key player
Although Cristiano has not been active and it seems that the dressing room problems do not stop, he has been one of the most consistent players in the Europa League.
Currently, the Portuguese player has a goal and an assist in this competition, so he could contribute a lot to the offense today.
Sheriff goes for the feat
Beating Manchester at home is not an easy mission for any team, and even less so with a run of three consecutive defeats in the Europa League.
That is why the visiting team will be looking to avoid the same mistakes they made the previous matchday when they lost against Real Sociedad in a match that ended 3-0 and to top it all off with the expulsion of Zohouri.
Manchester United goes for the pass
The home team, with nine total points, is very close to qualification, so much so that today with a draw they would achieve the goal of playing in the playoff round.
In the previous match, they won with a 1-0 score against Omonia, where McTominay scored in the 93rd minute.
The match will be played at the Old Trafford
The Manchester United vs Sheriff match will be played at the Old Trafford stadium, in Manchester, UK with a capacity of 74,849 people.
It is the largest club soccer stadium in the United Kingdom and the second largest soccer stadium overall after Wembley Stadium. It is also the eleventh largest in Europe.
Nicknamed "The Theatre of Dreams" by Sir Bobby Charlton, Old Trafford has been United's home since 1910, however, from 1941-49 the club shared Maine Road with local rivals Manchester City as a result of bomb damage to the stadium in World War II.
This historic venue has hosted FA Cup semi-finals, England matches, 1966 World Cup matches, Euro 1996 and the Champions League Final in 2003.

A Manchester United team that has practically secured its place in the Europa League play-offs, receives a Sheriff team that will undoubtedly be looking for a draw or a win to avoid being eliminated from the tournament.
And although it looks very complicated, the visiting team could still stay looking to leave out the opponent they have in turn.
However, the English team will not give up, as two consecutive victories would be enough for them to aspire to the first place in Group E.
