Ralf Rangnick has named his starting line-up for tonight’s Premier League clash with Burnley. Kick off is at 8.15pm.
This is United’s final fixture of 2021 and the team are looking to end a difficult 2021 on a high note.
Here is a look at how United line up…
Starting XI: De Gea; Wan Bissaka, Bailly, Maguire, Shaw; McTominay, Matic; Greenwood, Sancho; Cavani, Ronaldo
Substitutes: Henderson, Varane, Dalot, Telles, Fred, van de Beek, Rashford, Lingard, Elanga
United are unbeaten under Ralf Rangnick and have gained seven points from the last three games, while keeping two clean sheets. The negative spin is that the side have yet to score more than one goal in a game under the new boss.
Last season United won both games against Burnley, although the 2-0 loss in January 2020 at Old Trafford is still fresh in the memory.
Burnley are playing their first match in nearly three weeks this evening, although it remains to be seen whether they are as rusty as United were against Newcastle on Monday night.
United enter the night in seventh place and can go level on points with fifth placed West Ham with a win, with a game in hand.
Bruno Fernandes misses tonight’s game with suspension, while Victor Lindelof is out after a positive Covid test along with injured Paul Pogba.
