Manchester United suffered a first loss under Ruben Amorim at the Emirates on Wednesday. On Saturday, the Reds host Nottingham Forest with a chance to bounce back and continue to climb back up the table.
Team News
Lisandro Martinez and Kobbie Mainoo will return to the squad after serving one-match bans on Wednesday. Both players are likely to start after their mandatory rest.
Luke Shaw suffered a ‘minor setback’ before the Arsenal match and will be unavailable for an unknown amount of time. Jonny Evans and Victor Lindelof remain out, though the latter could return to action next week.
Leny Yoro made his first competitive appearance for Manchester United after coming off the bench against Arsenal. The 19-year-old logged over thirty minutes of action and will be in the mix to start Saturday.
Ruben Amorim has rotated heavily during this busy period and will likely continue that trend against Forest. One player who has started every match under the new boss is Noussair Mazraoui. The returns of Lisandro Martinez and Leny Yoro could afford the Moroccan a rest, with important fixtures against Viktoria Plzen and Manchester City looming.
Projected Eleven
Goalkeeper: Andre Onana
Defenders: Leny Yoro, Matthijs De Ligt, Lisandro Martinez
Midfielders: Amad Diallo, Kobbie Mainoo, Casemiro, Diogo Dalot
Attackers: Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rsshford, Joshua Zirkzee
Who will make the difference against Nuno Espirito Santo’s squad tomorrow?
