4-2-3-1: Shea Lacey set to finally be unleashed in this high-tempo United starting XI vs Villa
Story updated
The story in brief
6-second readManchester United could move Leny Yoro back into the middle against Aston Villa, with Harry Maguire doubtful and Lisandro Martinez suspended.
Rumour · This claim is unconfirmed.
From the source
Manchester United face Aston Villa on Sunday with Harry Maguire’s fitness a possible issue hanging over head coach Michael Carrick’s selection. Carrick offered little clarity on United’s injury situation at his pre-match press conference, but he did confirm that Carlos Baleba will be unavailable for a few weeks after sustaining a hamstring injury in midweek.
United’s victory over AS Roma on Tuesday ended their nine-match winless run and gave Carrick some much-needed breathing room. Senne Lammens should retain his place in goal, with Diogo Dalot and Noussair Mazraoui predicted to occupy the full-back positions.
Maguire limped off against Roma and may miss out. Matthijs De Ligt will come into the side if the England international is ruled out. Lisandro Martinez is definitely absent through suspension after being sent off against Chelsea on Saturday, removing one experienced option from Carrick’s defence.
