Manchester United had to settle for a draw against Twente in the EPL Cup. Even their last Premier League game ended in a 0-0 draw against Crystal Palace, which cost them two vital points. This has left the United fans frustrated and demanding more from the team.
The Red Devils will next face Tottenham Hotspur at home in the domestic league this weekend. It will be a tough challenge for them but with the support of the home crowd, they can overcome the huddle. It could be a key match for Erik ten Hag’s future.
4-2-3-1 Manchester United Predicted Lineup Vs Tottenham Hotspur
Defence
Andre Onana had a mixed performance against Twente but he should be lined up between the sticks. Right-back Noussair Mazraoui continues in the lineup but can improve his game further.
While Lisandro Martinez remains an automatic pick at the heart of the defence, Matthijs de Ligt is likely to return to accompany him. It means Harry Maguire will be sent to the bench. No change at the left full-back position as Diogo Dalotretains his spot.
Midfield
Manuel Ugarte is expected to earn his first Premier League start for Manchester United. He will probably have the company of Kobbie Mainoo in the middle of the park. No spot for Christian Eriksen in the team despite scoring in the previous game.
Attack
Marcus Rashford should be walking into the XI after getting a good rest. He is likely to replace Alejandro Garnacho on the left flank with Amad Diallo taking care of the right wing. Bruno Fernandes will continue his spot and serve as a bridge between the attack and the midfield.
Joshua Zirkzee leads the attacking front as Rasmus Hojlund is yet to gain full fitness. The likes of Leny Yoro, Luke Shaw, Victor Lindelof and Tyrell Malacia are also sidelined.
