Real Betis wing-back Youssef Sabaly: Casemiro has balanced Man Utd's game

Real Betis wing-back Youssef Sabaly says they face Manchester United with confidence tonight.

Betis are at Old Trafford for the first-leg of their Europa League round of 16 tie.

Sabaly said, "We have good feelings. We are doing well in the league table and the whole team is confident that we will continue like this.

"There is no fear, we know it will be difficult, especially there in front of their audience. But we will try to achieve a good result.

"It's difficult to think about winning, but we must be together tactically and defensively.

"The good thing is that we faced the duel against Madrid just before facing United. And we were well prepared, so now we will try to do it too and get a good result."

On facing United midfielder Casemiro, Sabaly added: "Casemiro has balanced United's game, he contributes defensively and offensively. He balances everything."
