It is claimed that Old Trafford chiefs believe that the game - which doesn't occur until matchday seven of the revamped Europa League phase - will have "highly-sought after" tickets with the Premier League club only selling home tickets to United fans who were signed up as members prior to the draw taking place.United are understood to be determined to avoid a repeat of mistakes that saw around 2000 additional Galatasaray fans enter the home sections at the stadium last season.
