Manchester United will be aiming to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they visit Tottenham Hotspur this afternoon.

The Red Devils have had a horrendous top-flight campaign, picking up just 29 points from a possible 72.

The club are languishing 14th in the standings. They will be eyeing a positive result against Spurs, who are two points behind them in the table.

Formation: 3-4-2-1

Predicted Line-up:

Andre Onana has been ever-present in goal in the Premier League for United. He is guaranteed to continue between the sticks against Ange Postecoglou’s side.

Harry Maguire and Leny Yoro are poised to start in the back three. Matthijs de Ligt will be reinstated into the starting XI alongside the duo.

Patrick Dorgu had a nervous debut against Leicester City in the FA Cup fourth-round win. He could drop to the bench.

Noussair Mazraoui is likely to start at right wing-back, with Diogo Dalot on the opposite flank.

There could be several changes further forward. Manuel Ugarte is a huge doubt alongside Toby Collyer, while Kobbie Mainoo and Amad Diallo have been ruled out with injuries.

Casemiro could get a rare start as the defensive midfielder with Bruno Fernandes in the number eight role.

Christian Eriksen may line up in attacking midfield alongside Alejandro Garnacho, who had a lively outing off the bench in the FA Cup fourth-round triumph.

Joshua Zirkzee will replace Rasmus Hojlund up front. The Dutchman scored a crucial equaliser against the Foxes and has been in better form in recent games.

Predicted Man Utd line-up (3-4-2-1) vs Tottenham: Onana; De Ligt, Maguire, Yoro; Mazraoui, Casemiro, Fernandes, Dalot; Eriksen, Garnacho; Zirkzee.
