David De Gea will certainly keep his place between the posts having been one of United’s standout players this season.

Diogo Dalot was again able to keep right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka out of the starting XI while Shaw came on for Alex Telles at the opposite end.

And skipper Harry Maguire is likely to support Raphael Varane at the heart of defence, while Victor Lindelof will have to settle for a place on the bench.

Fred should keep his place in the center of the pitch while Scott McTominay plays alongside him after shaking off his calf injury.

Fernandes would then be deployed in the No 10 position, with Jadon Sancho and Paul Pogba on the wings.

Cristiano Ronaldo would then be tasked with leading the line after his hat-trick against Spurs.
