John Guidetti confident of knocking Manchester United out of Europa League
Celta Vigo fell to a home 1-0 first-leg defeat to Manchester United thanks to Marcus Rashford's free-kick in the second half.
It could prove a crucial away goal when the teams meet Old Trafford next week, but former Manchester City striker Guidetti is confident they can turn things around.
Celta Vigo lost 1-0 to Manchester United in first leg
"That means a lot to us and also the performances we have done away from home," Guidetti said.
"Last year we scored three goals away against Atletico to go through and their defence is very strong and this year we won 2-1 at the Bernabeu and they are almost in the Champions League final. We know we can do it.
"It's not a problem to go there and attack because at the end of the day I don't think the Man United fans are going to be happy with Man United just sitting back and doing nothing.
"It's Old Trafford, it's their home they should be going and dominating us.
"The Man United fans expect more than sitting back and taking a 0-0 draw so I think we are going to have even more space, although we should have probably kept it 0-0."
