The Red Devils took until the 44th minute to open the scoring and doubled their advantage 20 minutes into the second half. The goal scoring was complete in the 81st minute but Manchester United will feel they should have scored more.
That result means Manchester United are undefeated in their 7 most recent fixtures in all competitions. There have been wins over Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League plus Omonia Nicosia Sheriff in the Europa League at home and a win at Everton in the Premier League.
Manchester United have been held to draws by Newcastle United at home and Chelsea away in the Premier League.
