De Gea And McTominay To Start, Henderson Out: United’s Predicted XI To Face Granada

David De Gea is expected to be given the nod ahead of Dean Henderson in goal for tonight’s game against Granada in the Europa League.

The Spaniard has it all to do to win back his first-team place and he will be hoping to impress in the first leg of the quarter-final tie this evening.

With Eric Bailly absent, and Alex Telles an injury doubt, manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is unlikely to make any changes at the back, with Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Victor Lindelof, Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw all expected to feature.


There may be some rotation in midfield, though, with Scott McTominay coming in to partner Paul Pogba, with Bruno Fernandes playing in the no.10 role.

Up front, there are doubts over the fitness of Marcus Rashford, but the importance of getting a first leg lead may see Solskjaer pick him to start, along with Edinson Cavani and Mason Greenwood.

Manchester United’s Predicted XI To Play Granada:

De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw, McTominay, Fernandes, Pogba, Greenwood, Cavani, Rashford
