Manchester United take on Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon and Erik ten Hag has named his starting line-up.
The Reds go into the game after failing to win a 10th consecutive game in all competitions against Crystal Palace on Wednesday night. Today would be a great time to bounce back after watching Newcastle drop points in the league on Saturday.
David de Gea gets the nod between the posts, which won’t come as a surprise to anybody. He plays behind a back four consisting of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez and Luke Shaw.
In midfield, we are without Casemiro due to suspension. Ten Hag has opted to bring in McTominay instead of Fred, and the Scotland international will be joined by Christian Eriksen and Bruno Fernandes.
Antony starts on the right, while Marcus Rashford attacks from the left and Wout Weghorst does all the dirty work inside the box.
Manchester United XI vs Arsenal: De Gea; AWB, Varane, Martinez, Shaw; McTominay, Eriksen, Fernandes; Antony, Weghorst, Rashford.
🚨 TEAM NEWS 🚨
Erik makes one change from Wednesday night, with @McTominay10 coming in for the suspended @Casemiro.#MUFC || #ARSMUN
