A place at the FA Cup semi-finals is at stake today as Manchester United travel to Norwich City.
The Canaries prop up the Premier League table, losing both games since the restart too. We have done the league double over Daniel Farke’s side this season – winning 3-1 here back in October and 4-0 at Old Trafford in January.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer promised to ring the changes for this game and has been a man of his word.
The two teams are confirmed as:
Manchester United
Sergio Romero; Diogo Dallot, Eric Bailly, Harry Maguire; Scott McTominay, Fred, Bruno Fernandes; Juan Mata, Odion Ighalo, Jesse Lingard
Substitutes: David de Gea, Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Brandon Williams, Nemanja Matic, Andreas Pereira, Paul Pogba, Mason Greenwood, Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford
Luke Shaw, Harry Maguire and Bruno Fernandes all keep their places in the starting lineup from Wednesday’s 3-0 demolition of Sheffield United. Eric Bailly gets a start at centre-back too which will be good for the Ivorian to get some minutes under his belt.
Odion Ighalo has looked hungry to score in his cameo Premier League appearances since the restart so don’t be surprised if he scores today.
Norwich City
Tim Krul; Max Aarons, Ben Godrey, Timm Klose, Jamal Lewis; Alex Tettey, Kenny McLean, Lukas Rupp; Emi Buendia, Todd Cantwell; Teemu Pukki
Substitutes: Michael McGovern, Marco Stiepermann, Ondrej Duda, Tom Trybull, Mario Vrancic, Moritz Leitner, Onel Hernandez, Anthony Idah, Josip Drmic
Norwich City don’t have a single defender among the substitutes, though Marco Steipermann has filled in their previously.
Daniel Farke has named his regular starting lineup for this afternoon’s game, led by Teemu Pukki up top and the exciting Todd Cantwell supporting the attack.
