After extracting a draw against Liverpool, Manchester United are set to lock horns with Bournemouth in the Premier League this weekend. It’s fair to say that they have lost the opportunity to earn a ticket to European competition for next season.
Hence, the Red Devils will play for pride and try to finish the ongoing campaign on a strong note. The match will also hold great significance as the English side will face Coventry in the FA Cup semi-final next week. Hence, it would be ideal to go there with a victory behind.
4-2-3-1 Manchester United Predicted Lineup Vs Bournemouth
Defence
Andre Onana showcased a good temperament against Liverpool and he should be ready to be lined up between the sticks once again. Diogo Dalot is likely to retain his spot as the right-back in the lineup.
Regular centre-backs Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans are doubtful for the clash. Hence, the duo of Willy Kambwala and Harry Maguire remain intact for the Bournemouth challenge. Aaron Wan-Bissaka might find himself lucky to start as the left-back after a dismal game against the Reds.
Midfield
No change in the holding midfield duo of Kobbie Mainoo and Casemiro. However, the veteran Brazilian hasn’t been up to the mark in recent weeks. He should up his game immediately as the FA Cup semi-final approaches.
Marcus Rashford was subbed off last week and may miss Saturday’s game. Antony should be walking into the XI. Bruno Fernandes operates in the middle with Alejandro Garnacho taking care of the left wing.
Attack
Rasmus Hojlund will continue to be the striker for Manchester United. However, his dipping form has become a concern at the club. The highly-rated striker failed to make any impact against Liverpool. Hence, all the eyes will be upon Hojlund, who will be desperate to find the back of the net.
Victor Lindelof, Luke Shaw, Lisandro Martinez, Tyrell Malacia, and Anthony Martial are confirmed absentees, while Scott McTominay is doubtful.
