Predicted Manchester United XI vs Fulham: who will play in goal? | OneFootball

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim’s defensive injury concerns seem to have cleared in time for today’s Premier League clash with Fulham at Craven Cottage.

Matthijs de Ligt, Leny Yoro and Noussair Mazraoui were all doubts due to carrying knocks, but have all travelled to London for the game.

Yoro may not make the first XI though, with Harry Maguire and Lisandro Martinez more likely to join De Ligt in the back three.

Victor Lindelof is another option, having returned to full training, but Luke Shaw and Jonny Evans are still out.

Mazraoui will probably come back in at right wing back, with Diogo Dalot continuing at left wing back.

Andre Onana should return in goal after being rested against Rangers in the week, but we have taken a punt that Amorim will stick with Altay Bayindir, who has looked the less error-prone of the pair in recent games.

Manu Ugarte and Kobbie Mainoo are likely to return in midfield having been rested against the ‘Gers.

Toby Collyer and Christian Eriksen, who both started on Thursday, are other options.

Casemiro is not seeing much action at the moment but in theory could be in the side.

Amad played wing back last time out but should move back into the right inside forward role, with Bruno Fernandes on the left and Alejandro Garnacho returning to the bench.

Antony has gone on loan to Real Betis, Marcus Rashford is persona non grata and does not appear to have travelled and Mason Mount is still injured.

As for the striker, Josh Zirkzee has started the last two games and was starting to look tired against the Scottish side. It may be that Rasmus Hojlund is given another chance to find some form against the Cottagers.

Here, then, is our predicted XI for this evening’s 7pm kick-off:
