Dalot, Martinez And Fred To Start, Eriksen On The Bench: United’s Predicted XI To Play Everton

With manager Erik ten Hag rotating some of his squad for the game against Bournemouth midweek, it suggests that he will field a strong lineup when Manchester United take on Everton in the FA Cup this evening.

David De Gea is expected to start in goal, with Diogo Dalot replacing Aaron Wan-Bissaka at right-back. Luke Shaw may, though, keep his place on the opposite flank.

In the centre of defence, Lisandro Martinez may be named in the starting eleven for the first time since the World Cup, with the Argentine being partnered by Raphael Varane.


Fred may be recalled to play alongside Casemiro in midfield, with Christian Eriksen rested. Bruno Fernandes is likely to take up his customary no.10 role.

Up front, ten Hag has confirmed that Anthony Martial is fit so the Frenchman could lead the line, with Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho playing either side of him.

Manchester United’s Predicted XI To Face Everton:

De Gea, Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Shaw, Casemiro, Fernandes, Fred, Rashford, Martial, Garnacho
