Manchester United have to cover up for the derby embarrassment when they take on Omonia Nicosia in a 2022-23 Europa League contest on Thursday. The Red Devils suffered a 6-3 defeat at the hands of Manchester City over the weekend.
The Cypriot side are bottom of Group E after defeats against Sheriff and Real Sociedad while Erik ten Hag's men have three points to show as they recovered from a 1-0 home defeat to Sociedad with a 2-0 win in Moldova.
With just one victory in their last 26 games in European club finals, Neil Lennon will look for inspiration from his side's two domestic wins on the trot where they scored six and conceded none and will be looking to exploit any weakness the English side may show.
