Europa League last-32 draw: Man Utd handed Sociedad tie, Arsenal land Benfica & Tottenham face Wolfsberger

 


The Premier League clubs have been handed tough opponents in the first knockout phase of Europe's second-tier competition

Manchester United have been handed a tie against Real Sociedad in the Europa League round of 32, while Arsenal have landed Benfica, and Tottenham will face Wolfsberger.

United will travel to the Anoeta to face current La Liga leaders Real Sociedad after dropping into Europe's second-tier competition following their Champions League exit.

The Red Devils made it through to the semi-finals last season only to be beaten by eventual winners Sevilla, and are among the favourites to win the trophy again come May, but Sociedad will likely provide a stern test of their credentials.
