Predicting how Manchester United will line up against Sunderland.
Following Man United’s opening day defeat to Swansea City, manage Louis Van Gaal will be looking for a quick response from his player in order to get them back on track. With that in mind, we take a look at how the Red Devils could line up on Sunday afternoon.
GK: David de Gea
The Spaniard is in no danger of losing his place anytime soon and will continue unchallenged.
CB: Tyler Blackett
The youngster will get a further chance to impress thanks to the lack of transfer activity.
CB: Phil Jones
The stretchy faced defender will be looking for a better showing than last week.
CB: Chris Smalling
Smalling, like Jones, will have had an extra week to get to grips with the new formation.
RWB: Rafael
The Brazilian will likely relieve Lingard of his duties now that he is fit again.
LWB: Ashley Young
Young will continue in his new unfamiliar role, which he seems to be revelling in.
