Bruno Fernandes will be back in the Man United squad after suspension

Wolves will be back in Premier League action on Monday evening when they face Manchester United at Old Trafford (5:30pm kick-off).

The Red Devils recorded a 3-1 win over Burnley last time out and will be looking to secure back-to-back victories.

However, Paul Pogba and Harry Maguire are set to miss the match through injury, as per The Athletic.

Meanwhile, interim manager Ralf Rangnick was hoping to have Victor Lindelof back in the squad after he contracted Covid but the Swedish defender may still be a while away yet.

The German interim boss is now short of centre-back options, with the extent of Maguire’s injury yet to be determined.

He will now have to rely on Phil Jones to make his first Premier League start appearance in two years, while Raphael Varane is set to come back in if fit enough.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka could be back on the bench, with Diogo Dalot replacing him in the starting line-up.

Nemanja Matic, meanwhile, is set to form a strong partnership with Scott McTominay in an attempt to overcome the experienced Wolves midfield.

The 63-year-old boss could rely on the same attacking quartet in Edinson Cavani, Cristiano Ronaldo, Mason Greenwood and Jadon Sancho.

Bruno Fernandes will be back after serving a suspension against Burnley.

Predicted line-up (4-4-2): De Gea, Varane, Jones, Dalot, Shaw, McTominay, Matic, Greenwood, Sancho, Ronaldo, Cavani.
