Confirmed Man United XI vs Brentford: Cunha injured, Maguire returns | OneFootball

Matheus Cunha has suffered a groin injury and is missing from the Manchester United line-up tonight as the Red Devils face Brentford at Old Trafford.

United interim manager Michael Carrick does have some good news, though, with Harry Maguire returning from suspension and Leny Yoro and Patrick Dorgu from injury.

Defence

Senne Lammens is in goal.

The back four are Diogo Dalot, Harry Maguire, Ayden Heaven and Luke Shaw.

Lisandro Martinez serves the last of his three-match suspension, while Matthijs de Ligt is still recovering from a back injury that has kept him out since November.

Midfield and Attack

Kobbie Mainoo and Casemiro are once again the defensive midfield duo.

Bruno Fernandes, Bryan Mbeumo and Amad are the attacking midfielders, with Ben Sesko taking his place once again up front.

The severity of Cunha’s injury is as yet unknown.

Substitutes

On the bench are Altay Bayindir, Yoro, Noussair Mazraoui, Dorgu, Tyrell Malacia, Manuel Ugarte, Mason Mount, Joshua Zirkzee, Shea Lacey.

A win for United will take them within a point of certain qualification for next season’s Champions League.

Kick-off at Old Trafford is at 8pm BST.
