Man United vs. PAOK live score: UEFA Europa League result, highlights, stats from Old Trafford image

Manchester United is set to face PAOK in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday, marking Ruud van Nistelrooy’s second-to-last game as interim manager.

Van Nistelrooy, a former United striker, stepped in as caretaker after Erik ten Hag’s departure following a Premier League defeat to West Ham last month. Ruben Amorim will assume the head coach role next week, giving Van Nistelrooy a few more opportunities to showcase his leadership at the club where he first gained fame.

Having drawn their first three matches, United is eager for a victory to jumpstart their Europa League journey and move closer to the knockout rounds.

The Sporting News will provide live score updates and crucial highlights during the match.
