Manchester United will take on Everton as they welcome them to Old Trafford on Saturday for this Premier League encounter. The Red Devils will come into the match on the back of a narrow 1-0 victory over Brentford.
Erik ten Hag will probably opt for the 4-2-3-1 formation and is expected to make a few changes in the starting XI for this contest. Anthony Martial could get a chance to lead the line up front as Jadon Sancho drops to the bench.
4-2-3-1 Manchester United Predicted XI Vs Everton
Defence
David de Gea is expected to continue between the sticks for the upcoming clash. The Spanish shot-stopper would look to put up a strong performance after keeping a clean sheet in his last outing.
Raphael Varane will continue alongside Lisandro Martinez as they form the customary centre-half partnership at the heart of United’s backline. Tyrell Malacia should replace Luke Shaw in the left-back position, whereas Aaron Wan-Bissaka will fill in on the other flank as the right-back.
Diogo Dalot will take a spot on the bench to provide cover for the defensive positions.
Midfield
Marcel Sabitzer is expected to start in the defensive midfield position. On the other hand, Fred will return to the middle of the park.
Bruno Fernandes remains a sure-fire starter for Man United in this weekend’s encounter. It’ll be an understatement to say that the Red Devils will be highly dependent on the Portugal international’s creative work in front of the goal to seal the deal.
Scott McTominay will have to settle for a place on the bench but could be brought on in the second half of the contest if needed.
Attack
Antony and Marcus Rashford will take up the wide positions, looking to cause a menace for the Newcastle defenders down the right and left-wing, respectively.
As mentioned earlier, Anthony Martial is expected to lead the line against the opposition in this contest, as he carries most of the goal-scoring burden for the Red Devils.
Jadon Sancho could be brought off the bench as an impact substitute in the second forty-five minutes of the match.
