Team news
Jose Mourinho has hinted, both in his team selection at Arsenal, and in press conferences, that he will play the same team at Old Trafford, as started in Spain. What can cause the manager to change his mind with the return to action of Phil Jones, Chris Smalling and Juan Mata against Arsenal last weekend. Sergio Romero may take his regular starting spot in goal in the Europa League in place of David De Gea and Marouane Fellaini is also available before serving the final match of his three-game domestic ban against Tottenham on Sunday.
For Celta, Giuseppe Rossi has a long term injury so won’t return to his former club. Ruben Blanco is a doubt for Vigo. They are also expected to play the same team that started in the first leg.

Eduardo Berizzo, Celta coach: “I'm expecting a United side to come out and try to win the game – it'll be a big test. Manchester United are a team that have grown up with pressure and they deal with it on a day to day basis. We just have to concentrate on our game and what we do.”
José Mourinho, Manchester United manager: “Trophies are very important for the club, and it is very important to be in a European final. It is important for the club to fight for the only trophy the club has never won before. For this group of players, [it would be] a first European success. It is very important for the club and players. We will fight hard. It has been a long journey – match No14 in the Europa League – and we want to win.”
