Manchester United welcome relegation-threatened Southampton to Old Trafford this Sunday in the Premier League as the home side looks to maintain their rich vein of form.
Last weekend’s 7-0 humiliating defeat to Liverpool had United put out a solid display to return to winning ways on Thursday night against Real Betis in the Europa League.
Let us now take a look at how Erik ten Hag might set up his United side for the upcoming game –
MAN UNITED PREDICTED LINE UP AGAINST SOUTHAMPTON (FORMATION)
4-2-3-1
David de Gea is a certainty to start between the goalposts for Manchester United with Erik ten Hag not expected to ring in changes to his defensive lineup.
Both Rapahel Varane and Lisandro Martinez are tipped to retain their starting berths while Diogo Dalot and Luke Shaw start as the two full-backs.
In the defensive midfield roles, Brazil duo Casemiro and Fred should not be dropping out with both players impressing in the win over Betis on Thursday.
Weghorst could be the one player dropping down the bench with England winger Jadon Sancho pushing for a recall to the first XI to join the front line.
