Confirmed Man Utd line-up (3-4-2-1) vs Everton, Ugarte & Hojlund on bench, Mainoo & Zirkzee start | OneFootball

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has named his starting line-up for today’s Premier League clash against Everton at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils returned to winning ways in midweek with a 3-2 victory over Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League. United came from 2-1 down to register a hard-fought win.

Amorim promised to rotate his squad prior to the game and has made six changes, with Rasmus Hojlund one of the players dropping to the substitutes’ bench.

Andre Onana starts in goal for the Red Devils. There are no changes in the back three, with Noussair Mazraoui, Matthijs de Ligt and Lisandro Martinez retaining their spots.

However, Antony and Tyrell Malacia drop to the bench after underwhelming performances in the wing-back roles. They have been replaced by Amad Diallo and Diogo Dalot.

Kobbie Mainoo makes his first start in midfield since returning from a calf injury. He will be partnered by Casemiro. Manuel Ugarte has dropped to the bench.

Alejandro Garnacho, Mason Mount and Hojlund are also on the substitutes’ bench. Hojlund scored a brace in midweek, but Joshua Zirkzee has been picked to lead the attack.

Bruno Fernandes starts in an attacking midfield role today alongside Marcus Rashford.

United are seven points behind the Champions League places and need a victory against the Toffees ahead of a tough trip to the Emirates Stadium to face Arsenal.

Amorim has heavily rotated his starting XI once more. He has made a huge decision to pick an out-of-form Zirkzee, and he has a huge point to prove today.
