FOOTBALL: Europa League news

Mauricio Pochettino believes his Tottenham squad is strong enough squad to fight for three trophies this season. Spurs, who are also Premier League and FA Cup contenders, face Italian side Fiorentina in the Europa League this evening. Elsewhere, Liverpool are also in action. They take on Augsburg in the last 32. Their German opponents are currently 14th in the Bundesliga, so Liverpool will be confident following their 6-0 win over Aston Villa last weekend. Manchester United will be without Captain Wayne Rooney for their game against Danish side Midtjylland. It’s reported his knee injury will keep the striker out for around six weeks. Tonight’s other fixtures include Borussia Dortmund vs FC Porto, Valencia vs Rapid Vienna and Galatasaray vs Lazio.
