Confirmed : Manchester United XI vs Brighton: Confirmed team news, predicted lineup and injury latest for Premier League game
Manchester United could have
Harry Maguire back and available for
the trip to Brighton on Saturday evening.
The England centre-back has missed
the last two matches due to a knee issue
but was back in training on Wednesday
, along with Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who
has not played since the heavy defeat
to Liverpool.
It remains to be seen whether Ralf
Rangnick brings the pair straight back
into the fold, with the interim boss likely
to take no risks with their fitness in
the final two games of the season.
Jadon Sancho will definitely be unavailable
against Brighton, as the winger is still
suffering with tonsillitis. He faces a
race to be fit for the trip to Selhurt Park
on the final day of the campaign.
“If [Sancho manages to return]
then maybe in the last game,” Rangnick said.
“I was in contact with him this afternoon
. He was in hospital until this morning
so he only returned back home today
. He still doesn’t feel well so, for sure
, not [against Brighton].”
Fred returned to the squad against
Brentford and will be pushing for a
start, while Juan Mata made his first
Premier League start of the season
against the Bees.
United were impressive and looked
far more fluid in attack than they
have done in recent months, so the
Spaniard may well keep his place
against Brighton.
Manchester United predicted XI (4-2-
3-1): De Gea; Dalot, Varane, Lindelof
, Telles; Fred, McTominay; Elanga,
Mata, Fernandes; Ronaldo.
