Confirmed Manchester United line-up vs Sheffield United: Maguire and McTominay start

Manchester United are back in action tonight with a Premier League clash against Sheffield United. Erik ten Hag has named a starting line-up he believes can claim all three points at Bramall Lane.

The Reds went into the international break after securing a late 2-1 win over Brentford at Old Trafford.

After a poor start to the season, Ten Hag will be hoping his side are ready to go on a winning run. We  won’t climb up the Premier League table otherwise.

A minutes’ silence will be held before the game to show respect to Sir Bobby Charlton, who passed away this evening, as well as the atrocities in the Middle East.

Andre Onana starts between the posts for United and we hope he can do his confidence the world of good with a clean sheet.

The back four consists of Diogo Dalot, Harry Maguire, Jonny Evans and Victor Lindelof. Ten Hag has kept Varane on the bench ahead of what will be a busy week for United, but the manager is also being mindful of the fact the Frenchman is returning from injury.

Casemiro is missing due to injury, so we’ll see Sofyan Amrabat start in midfield along with Bruno Fernandes and Scott McTominay. The Scotland international scored a brace last time out against Brentford and will be hoping to have the same impact on the game tonight.

In attack, Antony starts on the right with Marcus Rashford on the opposite wing. Danish striker Rasmus Hojlund leads the line against Sheffield United.

Manchester United XI vs Sheffield United: Onana; Dalot, Maguire, Evans, Lindelof; Amrabat, McTominay, Fernandes; Antony, Hojlund, Rashford.

Bench: Bayindir, Varane, Eriksen, Hannibal, Mount, Van de Beek, Garnacho, Martial, Pellistri.
