Manchester United XI vs Wolves: Confirmed team news, predicted lineup, injury latest for Premier League | OneFootball

Two defenders face late fitness tests ahead of Molineux trip

Manchester United hope to be boosted by the return of two defenders for the Monday night trip to Wolves.

Ruben Amorim is hopeful that De Ligt will return after the weekend, and is similarly positive about Diogo Dalot.

The full-back put United into the lead against the Hammers, with his first goal in over 18 months, but soon after had to be withdrawn after signalling to the bench.

Asked for an update on the pair after the 1-1 draw, Amorim said he "thinks" they will be available, adding: "We'll see."

Leny Yoro is also pushing for a start after coming off the bench in midweek.

Matheus Cunha is expected to start against his former club, after making his return from injury last time out. He will partner Bryan Mbeumo in attack, while a decision needs to be made over Joshua Zirkzee.

The striker scored against Crystal Palace but was fairly anonymous against West Ham, which could see Mbeumo move centrally or Mason Mount return in a false nine role.

Predicted Manchester United XI (3-4-3): Lammens; Mazraoui, Yoro, Shaw; Amad, Casemiro, Fernandes, Dalot; Mbeumo, Cunha; Zirkzee

Doubts: De Ligt, Dalot

Injured: Sesko, Maguire
