Manchester United are on top of the table after defeating Leeds United 5-1 at home. Next up, the Red Devils will face Southampton, who were beaten by Rafa Benitez’s Everton on the opening day.
As far as the team news is concerned, the likes of Amad, Bailly, Henderson and Cavani have returned to training. On the other hand, new signing Varane and Sancho have prepared well for the game vs the Saints.
Transfer: Man United ready to agree £83.2million contract with OT star – Report
We can expect the manager to make two changes in the squad that started vs the Elland Road outfit last weekend.
Jadon Sancho was used as a second-half substitute at Old Trafford and it will not come as any surprise if he gets the nod to make his debut start against the Saints. The England international could replace Daniel James to feature on the right wing.
The likes of Pogba and Fernandes must start with Sancho behind Mason Greenwood. Cavani should be brought on in the second half if needed.
Raphael Varane should replace Victor Lindelof to partner skipper, Harry Maguire, in the central defense in front of David De Gea. The likes of Wan-Bissaka and Shaw must retain their starting fullback positions.
In the center of the park, Scottish international, Scott McTominay, and Brazilian star, Fred, would likely start again for Man Utd.
Here is Man Utd’s strongest possible 4-2-3-1 XI vs Southampton:
