Real Sociedad
Ever since kicking off their Europa League campaign with an excellent win at Old Trafford, Real Sociedad look as though they mean business in Europe this season.
Can the Spaniards Keep Up 100% Record?
They have taken 15 points from a possible 15 and have secured their passage through to the next round with ease.
After leaving Manchester with all three points, Sociedad have beaten Sheriff Tiraspol and Omonia twice. Last week, Roberto Navarro and Brais Mendez were on target in a comfortable 2-0 victory over Omonia at GSP Stadium in Nicosia.
Eight-game Winning Run
Real Sociedad recently went on a stunning eight-game winning run in all competitions, which ended with a 1-0 league loss at Real Valladolid a couple of weeks back.
They also lost in La Liga at home to Real Betis last time out. Nevertheless, Imanol Alguacil’s boys are going okay in fifth.
On the whole, the White and Blues are having an exceptional season, especially in Europe.
A point will be enough on Thursday to take them directly through to the Round of 16, but the San Sebastian side will be looking for a win in front of their home supporters.

Manchester United
On paper, Manchester United are one of the best European League teams in the competition. Before a ball was kicked, the Premier League giants were among the favorites to lift the trophy.
Can the Red Devils Get the Win in Spain?
However, if they do not win on Thursday, the Red Devils will finish second in the final Europa League standings in Group E and will face a knockout play-off tie.
Erik ten Hag’s men have responded well after losing their opening Group E game to Sociedad in September.
They have gone on to win four in a row, beating Sheriff and Omonia home and away, scoring nine, and conceding two in the process. United will win the group if they win by more than one goal at Anoeta.
Man United’s Fine Form
Man United head to Spain in fine form. Since losing to bitter rivals Manchester City in a Premier League Manchester derby at the Etihad Stadium a month ago, the Red Devils are unbeaten in eight games across all competitions, picking up six wins and drawing twice.
After edging past West Ham United last weekend, Man United will be gunning for another victory here. Can they end their group Europa League schedule with three points in Spain?
