Confirmed Man Utd line-up (3-4-2-1) vs Liverpool: Ugarte starts, 3 big changes from Amorim
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has named his starting line-up for today’s Premier League clash against Liverpool at Anfield.
The Red Devils are on a four-match losing streak in all competitions and face a massive challenge on their hands against their arch-rivals.
United have failed to pick up a victory in any of the previous eight trips to Anfield. They have played out four goalless draws in this period.
Ahead of today’s North-West derby, Amorim has made three changes from the 2-0 loss to Newcastle United at Old Trafford on Monday night.
Andre Onana unsurprisingly continues in goal for the Mancunian giants.
The central defence remains the same. Harry Maguire continues in the middle of the backline, with Matthijs de Ligt and Lisandro Martinez on either side.
Noussair Mazraoui and Diogo Dalot continue in the wing-back positions, but it remains to be seen whether the duo swap places this evening.
There is a double change in midfield with Casemiro and Christian Eriksen dropping to the bench.
Manuel Ugarte is back in the XI after serving his one-game suspension. Kobbie Mainoo will accompany the Uruguayan in the centre of the park.
Bruno Fernandes starts in one of the attacking midfield roles after his one-game domestic ban.
Amad Diallo partners the Portuguese with Rasmus Hojlund leading the line on his own
Joshua Zirkzee drops to the bench after an underwhelming display against the Magpies. The Dutchman was substituted after just 33 minutes during the 2-0 defeat.
Confirmed Man Utd line-up (3-4-2-1) vs Liverpool: Onana; De Ligt, Maguire, Martinez; Dalot, Ugarte, Mainoo, Mazraoui; Diallo, Fernandes; Hojlund.
