Manchester United will play hosts to LASK at Old Trafford on Wednesday evening hoping to pick up a win on their way to booking a place in the quarterfinals of the UEFA Europa League. The Red Devils have enjoyed a decent run of form of late and will be confident about emerging victorious in midweek.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will probably go with a 4-2-3-1 formation and might make a whole host of changes to his first-team for this upcoming clash at the Theatre of Dreams.
4-2-3-1 Manchester United Predicted Lineup To Face LASK
Defence
Sergio Romero could get the nod to operate in goal for the Mancunian giants as he tries to maintain his recent good form in European football. David De Gea might have to settle for a spot on the bench. Eric Bailly is expected to start alongside Harry Maguire at the heart of the Man United defence as they try to restrict the opposition from scoring in midweek.
Timothy Fosu-Mensah could lineup at right-back while Brandon Williams looks to impress on the other side as the left-back. Solskjaer would want both his full-backs to express themselves in the opposition half so that they can create enough chances to secure a victory versus LASK in midweek.
Midfield
Fred will feature along with Scott McTominay at the centre of the park as they try to establish Man United’s dominance in midfield. The hard-working duo will have to figure out a way to create some decent goal-scoring chances going forward.
The talented three of Tahith Chong, Andreas Pereira and Daniel James could get a chance to put in a productive display against LASK on Wednesday. Both Paul Pogba and Bruno Fernandes should be available for selection on the Man United bench and might come on to make an impact in the second half if required.
Attack
Odion Ighalo is expected to given the responsibility to lead the line for the Red Devils up top. The Nigerian striker will fancy his chances of getting his name on the scoresheet at Old Trafford after netting two goals in three appearances in European football this season.
Marcus Rashford, Mason Greenwood and Anthony Martial will make up the numbers on the bench. They could be utilised as the impact substitutes in the second 45 minutes if needed.
