Predicted Man Utd line-up vs Leicester tonight

Manchester United face Leicester City on the road in tonight's Premier League encounter.

The club have won two of their opening four league games, and can go within one point off the top four with a victory at the King Power Stadium.

Erik ten Hag is unlikely to contemplate multiple changes after back-to-back wins, but Casemiro could make his full debut for the Mancunian giants.

Predicted Line-up:

David de Gea has been far from convincing in goal this campaign. He has made a few blunders, but continues to receive the backing from the manager. He should start against the Foxes tonight.

No changes are expected. The back four has been hugely impressive over the past two games, and Ten Hag has no reason to rotate. He may consider changes for the Europa League matches.

Diogo Dalot, Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez and Tyrell Malacia should be confirmed starters in defence. In front of them, we are expecting a full debut for Casemiro with Scott McTominay being dropped.

The Brazilian was expected to start from the off against the Saints last weekend, but Ten Hag wanted him to assess the intensity. The ex-Real Madrid star will most certainly play 90 minutes tonight.

Further forward, no changes are likely. Bruno Fernandes and Christian Eriksen should continue as the creative midfield pairing. Ten Hag may not want another defensive midfielder in Fred in the XI.

Jadon Sancho and Anthony Elanga look set to play either side of Marcus Rashford, who should lead the line ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo. The England star looks back at his best after a poor 2021/22 season.

Predicted Man Utd line-up (4-3-3): De Gea; Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Malacia; Casemiro, Fernandes, Eriksen; Sancho, Rashford, Elanga.
