Predicted Manchester United lineup (4-3-3) vs West Ham, Sanchez and Rashford start

Manchester United make the trip to the London Stadium to face West Ham United on Thursday night. The Red Devils suffered a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion last week and Jose Mourinho will be hoping for a much better performance against the Hammers to seal the runner-up spot.

Formation: 4-3-3

Lineup:

David de Gea is currently tied with Manchester City's Ederson on 17 clean sheets but the Spaniard has the opportunity to jump ahead in the Golden Glove race. He is more likely to start.

In defence, Mourinho should revert to his senior combination in the full-back combinations and this should witness Antonio Valencia and Ashley Young start on the right and left side of the backline.

Likewise, Chris Smalling is a strong contender to start at centre-back and he could be accompanied by compatriot Phil Jones, who has recovered from his knock.

In midfield, Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba have been ever-presents followong the last international break and Mourinho could line them up alongside Ander Herrera in a three-man combination.

With Romelu Lukaku injured, Marcus Rashford should lead the line against David Moyes' side whilst we are fancying Alexis Sanchez and Jesse Lingard to feature either side of him.
