Expected Man Utd line-up (4-2-3-1) vs West Ham | Two changes on the cards | OneFootball

Manchester United will be aiming to return to winning ways when they face West Ham United at the London Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

The Red Devils played out a 1-1 draw against Fenerbahce in the Europa League on Thursday. They were 1-0 ahead at the break but could not hold onto their advantage.

United manager Erik ten Hag will want a better performance against the Hammers tomorrow and he is expected to make a couple of key changes.

The Dutchman will be without nine first-team players due to injury and fitness concerns. Antony is the latest to join the long list of absentees with an ankle sprain.

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Predicted Line-up:

Andre Onana has played every minute in the Premier League for United since his arrival from Inter Milan and he is expected to start. The Cameroonian was fantastic in midweek, making a sensational double save.

Victor Lindelof was responsible for the goal conceded and was immediately substituted by the manager. The Swede should drop to the bench.

Noussair Mazraoui should return to his customary right-back position after playing in an unfamiliar number 10 position in Istanbul due to the absence of the suspended Bruno Fernandes.

Diogo Dalot has largely played as a makeshift left-back this season due to Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia being sidelined. He is most likely to shift to the position with Mazraoui returning to the back four.

Matthijs de Ligt and Lisandro Martinez are poised to be reunited in the heart of the defence.

Manuel Ugarte had his best game in the United shirt in midweek, earning praise from Ten Hag after the stalemate. He should feature in the number six position ahead of Casemiro.

With Kobbie Mainoo and Mason Mount injured, Christian Eriksen is an assured starter in the number eight role. He has had a good start to the season with four goals and three assists.

Fernandes should reclaim his attacking midfield position after serving a one-game European ban.

Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford are nailed-on starters out wide, but Joshua Zirkzee is expected to be dropped after another poor showing in midweek.

Rasmus Hojlund is the in-form striker, scoring two goals in his last three starts in all competitions. The Dane should get the nod over Zirkzee to lead the attack against the Hammers.
