Manchester United are on the road to Southampton this weekend in the Premier League following their memorable win over Liverpool last time around.
Goals from English duo Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford gave United their first win of the new league campaign as they look to continue their recent run of form with another good showing away from home turf.
Let us now take a look at how Erik ten Hag might set up his United side for the upcoming game –
4-3-3
David de Gea remains United’s first choice option to start between the goalposts with Eric ten Hag likely to go with an unchanged defensive lineup from the win over Liverpool last weekend.
Lisandro Martinez will partner up with Raphael Varane in the heart of the backline while Diogo Dalot and Tyrell Malacia will retain their starting berths in the full-back slots.
In midfield, United should have Bruno Fernandes, Christian Eriksen and Scott McTominay as the three players with Casemiro’s move to Old Trafford yet to be completed officially.
Ten Hag is not expected to issue a recall to superstar Cristiano Ronaldo to lead the United front line with Jadon Sancho, Rashford and Elanga all expected to retain their spots in the XI.
