Predicted Man Utd line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Tottenham, Shaw starts

Manchester United welcome Tottenham Hotspur to Old Trafford for today's Premier League encounter.

The Red Devils are currently nine points adrift of the top four and have the chance to reduce the deficit.

Predicted Line-up:

Andre Onana has played every minute of the league campaign in goal and he is set to feature against Spurs. This will be the Cameroonian's final appearance before reporting for African Cup of Nations.

In the backline, there could be a single change from last Monday with Aaron Wan-Bissaka making way for Luke Shaw, who is back from a calf injury. He should start at left-back with Diogo Dalot on the other end.

Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans are set to continue in the heart of the backline. Lisandro Martinez is fit after a foot surgery but he could be eased into the proceedings off the substitutes' bench.

In midfield, Kobbie Mainoo looks primed to start in the number six position. He could have a new partner in Christian Eriksen. Scott McTominay is likely to drop to the bench after a frustrating display at Wigan where he squandered three big chances.

In the final third, it should be the same quartet of Alejandro Garnacho, Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford and Rasmus Hojlund. They are the best options at the current point of time and Erik ten Hag is unlikely to experiment in such a crucial fixture at home.

Predicted Man Utd line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Spurs: Onana; Dalot, Varane, Evans, Shaw; Mainoo, Eriksen; Garnacho, Fernandes, Rashford; Hojlund.
