Our predicted MUFC XI for a pretty pivotal Premier League away game vs Nottingham Forest is now in.
Manchester United are looking to string back-to-back Premier League wins together over the Christmas period later today.
An away game against Nottingham Forest, complete with their ‘new manager bounce’, means this is going to be a tricky game for the boys in Red.
That said, Erik ten Hag will be looking to continue with winning ways in this tough fixture. The gaffer has already confirmed that the squad will be looking similar to the one that managed to overcome Aston Villa in dramatic circumstances back on Boxing Day.
The team looked pretty good, particularly in attack, during that match. So let’s hope the defence can keep things tighter and play a more complete game here.
Anyway, without further ado, it’s time for the full rundown of the team…
Check out our predicted MUFC XI vs Nottingham Forest in full here:
Andre Onana will start in between the sticks, with the man from Cameroon looking to continue his good form from an individual standpoint.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka will start in the right-back position once again, with Diogo Dalot filling in over on the left-hand side as Luke Shaw is still expected to be missing. Jonny Evans is forming quite the bond with Raphael Varane at the heart of defence. Let’s hope they can continue here.
Kobbie Mainoo simply has to start. The young Englishman is playing at a super high level right now and we need his confidence to continue flowing. Alongside the teenager is Christian Eriksen, who provides that on-ball quality and skill. Bruno Fernandes completes the midfield trio.
Rasmus Hojlund starts as the main striker here, fresh off of his first Premier League goal. To his right and left respectively will be Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford.
Come on you Reds.
