Erik ten Hag will set his men up in a 4-2-3-1 formation once again and might ask them to defend their lines well and try to catch the opposition off-guard on the counter.

Arne Slot will opt for the 4-2-3-1 formation as well and could ask his players to dominate the ball and engineer some clear-cut chances to win this contest at Old Trafford.
