Your move, Manchester United players. Champions League fixtures on TV return this week, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer won’t after being dismissed at the weekend.

United travel to face Villarreal in another rematch of their doomed Europa League final clash earlier in 2021.

Michael Carrick will lead the team into the game as interim manager and will demand a response from the players with their European knockout status anything but secure.

United came from 1-0 down to win 2-1 thanks to a 95th-minute winner from Cristiano Ronaldo in the reverse fixture at Old Trafford.

The two teams are level atop Group F. If United win, they will secure their place in the knockout rounds but if one of the teams loses tonight and Atalanta defeat Young Boys, they would head into their last match needing a good result.

Our prediction: Villarreal v Man Utd

It’s fair to say this is a baptism of fire for Carrick to say the least. It’s a must-not-lose match or the pressure ramps up on their final fixture.

It’s time to see what the United players are made of. Their apologetic gesturing towards the fans at Watford, the social media posts, the soul-searching – it counts for little without a response on the pitch.

Ronaldo, Edinson Cavani, Bruno Fernandes, Harry Maguire – the experienced players on the pitch must step up to the plate in the weeks to come, but this is a tough encounter.

Our prediction: Villarreal 1-1 Man Utd (11/2 at bet365).
