Bruno Fernandes acknowledges that Manchester United can expect a difficult game away at Porto in the Europa League, but says the Reds will play to win.

Fernandes will be eligible to play in that game at the Estadio do Dragao on Thursday night, with the suspension from his red card in Sunday's defeat to Tottenham Hotspur only applying to domestic games.

Having grown up in Porto, as a fan of their local rivals Boavista, Bruno is more knowledgeable than most when it comes to our next opponent.

United will be looking to respond after the weekend and, although Porto lost their Europa League opener against Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt last week, their recent results in Liga Portugal have been positive. Sunday's 4-0 win over Arouca was their third successive domestic victory since losing to Sporting CP at the end of August.
