MU's opponents suffered heavy losses.

Athletic Bilbao risk losing both Nico Williams and Oihan Sancet for the Europa League semi-final second leg against Manchester United on May 9th.

Losing Nico Williams is a major blow for Bilbao.

In the early hours of May 5th, Williams and Sancet were both absent from Bilbao's 0-0 draw against Sociedad in La Liga's 34th round. AS reported that both suffered injuries and were racing against time to be fit for the upcoming match against Manchester United.

In the first leg at home at San Mames last week, Williams started while Sancet was absent. Williams had an ineffective performance, being neutralized by Manchester United defender Noussair Mazraoui. The Euro 2024 champion had a 25% dribbling success rate, zero accurate crosses, only eight passes, and lost possession 20 times.

Williams is Bilbao's star player thanks to his dribbling ability and creativity. However, failing to make an impact, the striker couldn't prevent Bilbao from suffering a 0-3 defeat against Manchester United.

Meanwhile, Sancet is Bilbao's top scorer in La Liga this season with 15 goals. He plays in multiple attacking positions and is a formidable forward for the La Liga club.

Bilbao coach Ernesto Valverde said: "Sancet is recovering well, while Nico needs more time. I would love for both of them to play in the next game."

MU are unbeaten in the Europa League this season after 13 matches. The "Red Devils" have been Bilbao's biggest obstacle since the start of the tournament.

Brentford scored 4 goals against MU. On the night of May 4th, MU lost 3-4 to hosts Brentford in the 35th round of the Premier League.
