Europa League: Manchester United draw Sociedad, Arsenal meet Benfica

• Spurs draw Wolfsberger while Leicester play Slavia Prague
• Rangers face Antwerp while Lille v Ajax is pick of round

Manchester United face a testing tie in the last 32 of the Europa League after being drawn against La Liga leaders Real Sociedad, while Arsenal must get past Benfica and Tottenham were drawn against Austrian side Wolfsberger.

Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s team were eliminated from the Champions League last week and their reward is a showdown with the side who lead Atlético Madrid on goal difference but have played two more matches. It will be United’s first meeting with the Basque club since the 2013/14 Champions League group stage, when David Moyes’s side beat them 1-0 at Old Trafford due to an Iñigo Martínez own-goal and drew the away match 0-0, Robin van Persie missing a penalty. Moyes went on to spend a year as Sociedad manager before leaving in November 2015.
