Predicted Manchester United line-up v Omonia

Add as preferred source on Google

Manchester United are looking to record a third Europa League win in a row tonight at home to Omonia Nicosia.

Last week United beat Omonia 3-2 in Cyprus, with Marcus Rashford (2) and Anthony Martial on the scoresheet.

United made far harder work of that match than it needed to be, trailing at half-time before turning the game around.

Supporters are hoping for a more straightforward victory tonight, with manager Erik ten Hag warning his approach is ‘All out for the victory,’ speaking via the club website.

Despite this, we could see a handful of changes as United come off a stretch of three games in eight days, and follow this match up with Premier League ties with Newcastle, Tottenham, and Chelsea.

Predicted Manchester United line-up v Omonia

This is still a match we would expect David de Gea in goal. Martin Dubravka might only get a game against Sheriff Tiraspol, if United win this fixture.

Right-back will still be Diogo Dalot, with Aaron Wan-Bissaka out injured. Lisandro Martinez and Victor Lindelof should continue at centre-back, with Raphael Varane being saved for the Newcastle fixture on Sunday.

This match will also provide a chance for Tyrell Malacia to stake a claim, after being substituted at half-time against Omonia last week. Luke Shaw is back in command of the left-back spot.

In midfield we will certainly see Scott McTominay, who is suspended against Newcastle this weekend. United will rest Casemiro for Sunday.

He could be partnered by a familiar face, with Fred likely to come in and a rest finally given to Christian Eriksen.

Bruno Fernandes will still likely start the game and captain the side, although United will hope to wrap the game up early so he does not play all 90 minutes.

United’s front three could be the same trio who started in Omonia, with Jadon Sancho brought back in after he was an unused substitute at the weekend.

Antony will start on the right, while Cristiano Ronaldo will lead the line up front looking for his first Old Trafford goals of the season.
