Confirmed Man Utd line-up vs Sheffield United, Antony starts

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has named his starting line-up for tonight’s Premier League clash against Sheffield United at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils are winless in their last four league games and they will be aiming to end the poor run with a victory over the Blades, who are bottom of the table.

Ahead of the game, Ten Hag has made two changes from the FA Cup semi-final win over Coventry City.

Scott McTominay was deemed to be very doubtful for the game, but he has made the squad. However, he is only on the bench with Christian Eriksen getting the nod.

The other change is in the final third with Marcus Rashford sitting out after an injury against the Sky Blues.

In his place, Antony has been picked in United’s attack. The Brazilian is likely to operate from the right wing with Alejandro Garnacho moving to the left flank.

Confirmed Man Utd line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Sheffield United: Onana; Dalot, Casemiro, Maguire, Wan-Bissaka; Eriksen, Mainoo; Antony, Fernandes, Garnacho; Hojlund.

United have been poor in the league since the international break. They have picked up only three points from the previous four games and need to return to winning ways.

The club are unlikely to qualify for the Champions League, but have plenty to play for. They need to start winning to stand any chance of playing European football next term.

Rashford’s injury is another setback for United, but Antony has the opportunity to prove his credentials, having got the nod over Amad, who was better off the bench on Sunday.
