Despite their struggles in the league, Man United remain in contention for silverware.
The Red Devils took a massive step towards the Europa League final after securing an impressive 3-0 away win over La Liga side Athletic Bilbao in the first leg of the semi-final, with Casemro playing a big part for United.
That result has left them just one win away from reaching the final, where Man United are likely to face Tottenham, another side struggling in the league.
And with momentum seemingly building in Europe, former United midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger has now weighed in on the club’s chances of going all the way.
Bastian Schweinsteiger makes bold Europa League prediction for Manchester United
Schweinsteiger, who joined Manchester United in 2015, has backed the Red Devils to defy the odds and lift the Europa League trophy this season.
In an in-depth interview with Flashscore, the former German midfielder said: “Manchester United is a club that knows how to win, even when the odds are stacked against them.
“This season has had its ups and downs, but in Europe, knockout football is about mentality and heritage. United has that in their DNA.
“With Bruno Fernandes controlling the midfield and young players stepping up like Alejandro Garnacho, they’re building momentum. The match against Athletic, impressed me a lot, after the red card, it boosted players’ momentum to play.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if they go all the way and lift the Europa League trophy. It’s about picking the form at the right time.”
Manchester United’s Europa League campaign so far
While Manchester United’s domestic form under Ruben Amorim has been disappointing, their performances in Europe have been a different story.
In the Premier League, Amorim has overseen 23 matches, winning just six, drawing six, and losing 11.
However, his record in the Europa League paints a much more positive picture—nine games, seven wins, and two draws—steering the club to the brink of the final.

| Europa League | 9 | 7 | 2 | 0 |
With their Premier League hopes in tatters, winning the Europa League could be the lifeline Manchester United desperately need.
Not only would it bring a trophy back to Old Trafford, but it would also secure Champions League qualification — a vital achievement given the club’s financial and sporting ambitions.
