Manchester United will be looking for back-to-back Premier League victories when they host Leeds United at Old Trafford tonight.
The Red Devils recently defeated Crystal Palace 2-1 in the Premier League. After Casemiro was sent off in the 70th minute, they had to work hard to get the result.
Antony suffered an injury in the same game, forcing him to be replaced. As a result, manager Erik ten Hag will make at least two changes to his starting lineup.
The formation is 4-2-3-1.
Lineup Predictions:
David de Gea has been outstanding in goal in recent months. Last weekend, he made a crucial save on a powerful Marc Guehi header. The Spaniard is expected to make his debut between the posts.
We expect a single change in the backline, with Aaron Wan-Bissaka being replaced by Diogo Dalot, who was an unused substitute against Palace following his recovery from a thigh injury.
Wan-Bissaka has performed admirably in Da lot’s absence due to injury, but the latter should be reintroduced to the starting lineup because he provides much more in the final third with key passes and overlapping runs.
The rest of the defense should remain untouched. Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez have been outstanding in central defense and should be retained. Luke Shaw will make his debut as a left-back.
With Casemiro serving a three-match suspension, there will be a forced change in midfield. Given that Scott McTominay is also injured, Fred should fill in at number six.
Marcel Sabitzer is expected to make his full Premier League debut for Manchester United. The Austrian will play from position number eight, where he is most comfortable.
With Antony out, Ten Hag will have to make a change going forward. We believe Jadon Sancho will be selected ahead of Alejandro Garnacho, who is primarily a left winger by trade.
With Bruno Fernandes on the right wing, Sancho could play in the number 10 position. Marcus Rashford will almost certainly start on the left flank, with Wout Weghorst directing the attack.
