Manchester United Team News
Lisandro Martinez could return to the starting lineup for Manchester United in this encounter, as the centre-back will have had over a week of training following his return from the World Cup.
Luke Shaw has played well as a centre-back in the team’s last two games, but he could be shifted to left-back for this game, while Aaron Wan-Bissaka could hold his spot at right-back if Diogo Dalot is ruled out again owing to a hamstring injury suffered at the World Cup.
Axel Tuanzebe is out for the foreseeable future due to a long-term injury, while Jadon Sancho (fitness) and Scott McTominay (sickness) are both concerns for the 20-time English champions.
Bournemouth Team News
Philip Billing is a huge doubt for the contest, having been forced to exit in the first half of Palace’s defeat owing to a hip injury.
David Brooks and Neto will also be unavailable for selection, while Ryan Fredericks, Junior Stanislas, and Marcus Tavernier are likely to be too tired.
Siriki Dembele is expected to replace Billing in central midfield, but the rest of the lineup could be the same as the one that faced Palace, with Kieffer Moore and Dominic Solanke acting as the front two.
Possible Lineups
Manchester United Predicted XI:
De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Martinez, Shaw; Eriksen, Casemiro; Antony, Fernandes, Rashford; Martial
Bournemouth Predicted XI:
Travers; Anthony, Smith, Senesi, Kelly, Zemura; Cook, Lerma, Dembele; Solanke, Moore
