Manchester United will clash heads with Sevilla at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium on Thursday night, hoping to pick up a win and secure a place in the semi-finals of the UEFA Europa League. The teams will be heading into the match on the back of a 2-2 draw last Thursday.
Erik ten Hag will probably opt for the 4-3-3 formation with a couple of tweaks from the last game as Scott McTominay seems likely to make his way into the starting eleven.
4-3-3 Predicted Manchester United Lineup Vs Sevilla
Defence
David de Gea is expected to start between the sticks for the upcoming clash. The Spanish shot-stopper would hope to put up a strong performance and secure a clean sheet on Thursday.
Harry Maguire is expected to start at the heart of United’s backline with Victor Lindelof slotting into the right-centre back position. Aaron Wan-Bissaka is a guaranteed starter at the right-back position, whereas Diogo Dalot will fill in on the other flank as the left-back.
Midfield
Casemiro is expected to start in the defensive midfield position, whereas Scott McTominay will slot in as the central midfielder.
Christian Eriksen remains a sure-fire starter for Manchester United this week, and it’ll be an understatement to say The Red Devils will be highly dependent on the Denmark international’s creative work if they wish to pick up a win on Thursday.
Marcel Sabitzer will have to settle for a place on the bench, but he could be brought on in the second half of the contest if needed.
Attack
Antony and Jadon Sancho will take up the wide positions, causing menace for Jose Luis Mendilibar’s men down the left and right wing respectively.
Anthony Martial is expected to lead the line for Manchester United in midweek. The 27-year-old striker’s adept movement in front of the goal could cause a lot of trouble for the Sevilla defence that has conceded six goals in their last five matches across all competitions.
Marcus Rashford could be brought off the bench as an impact substitute in the second forty-five minutes of the match.
