Under-fire Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag gets to pit his wits against former Red Devils boss Jose Mourinho on Thursday as Man United travel to Turkey to take on Fenerbahçe in the UEFA Europa League.
The pressure has eased a little on ten Hag after United's 2-1 comeback win over Brentford in the English Premier League at the weekend. However, having played out two disappointing draws against FC Twente and Porto so far in this tournament, anything less than a positive result here for the visitors will likely see the Dutch coach's job placed under further scrutiny.
The hosts are currently on a four-match unbeaten streak under Mourinho and are also yet to be beaten in this tournament, after recording a 2-1 win over Union SG and a 1-1 draw with Twente.
Fenerbahçe take on Manchester United on Thursday, Oct. 24, at the Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium in Istanbul, with kickoff set for 10 p.m. EEST local time in Turkey, which makes it an 8 p.m. BST start in the UK, a 3 p.m. ET or 12 p.m. PT kickoff in the US and Canada, and a 6 a.m. AEDT start in Australia on Friday morning.
Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the match as it happens, wherever you are in the world.
The last time these two teams met in a competitive fixture was in the group stages of this tournament back in 2016. Current Fenerbahçe boss Jose Mourinho was in charge of Man United at the time, with the Turkish side winning that fixture 2-1.

If you find yourself unable to view Europa League matches locally, you may need a different way to watch the games -- that's where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it's also a great idea if you're traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.
With a VPN, you're able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. Most VPNs, like our Editors' Choice, ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.
Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you're streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.
