Sesko returns in place of Amad: Predicted Manchester United XI vs Tottenham Hotspur
Manchester United are on home soil for a second successive weekend as they take on Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford on matchday 25 of the Premier League, hoping to secure a fourth straight win and continuing their upward surge in the standings.
Last weekend, they won a five-goal thriller against Fulham and while there is room for improvement, it was a well-deserved success for the Red Devils who now face another tough test. Here is how they could line-up for the match.
Goalkeeper – Senne Lammens is expected to continue in goal for the hosts.
Defenders – Diogo Dalot might once again be preferred to Noussair Mazraoui at right back, with Luke Shaw also in contention to retain his place at left back. Harry Maguire and Lisandro Martinez could partner with one another in the heart of the back four, therefore rounding off an unchanged backline from last weekend’s win over Fulham.
Sesko set to lead the line
Midfielders – Kobbie Mainoo has finally found a decent run of minutes under Michael Carrick and is expected to continue building on those against Tottenham Hotspur with a place in the starting eleven in a deeper-lying role in midfield. Casemiro could partner with him after his goal and assist versus Fulham last time out.
Bruno Fernandes might play as the attacking midfielder for Manchester United, whereas Bryan Mbeumo, who was the striker in the previous game, might replace Amad Diallo on the right wing. Matheus Cunha is set to continue on the left flank, meanwhile.
Forward – £74 million summer signing Benjamin Sesko bagged a stoppage time winner against Fulham and his contribution could be rewarded with a place in the Man United line-up as the solitary striker.
Here is how the Red Devils may look on paper.
