Europa League winner odds: United favourites ahead of quarter-finals

Manchester United are the 5/4 favourites in Coral’s Europa League winner odds ahead of the quarter-finals next month.

Arsenal’s exit in the last round means United are the sole English representatives in the last eight but they are the team to beat, according to the outright betting.

United beat Real Betis in the round of 16 and will return to Seville to face Sevilla in the quarter-finals, with the first leg taking place at Old Trafford on April 13.

Perhaps crucially, Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro managed to play a substantial part of the second leg against Betis without picking up bookings that would rule them out of the first leg.

Sevilla have won the competition a record six times but are having a poor season domestically and have sacked boss Jorge Sampaoli in a bid to stave off La Liga relegation.

Sunday’s 2-0 defeat to Getafe left them just two points above the bottom three in a congested bottom half of the table and the club have acted in removing the former Argentina and Marseille manager.

The quarter-finals are set! 👊

United are firm favourites at 4/11 to win the first leg and if they can progress they will face a semi-final against either Juventus or Sporting, who beat Arsenal on penalties to reach this stage.
