Here is how we predict Manchester United will line up against Swansea City this week:
Manchester United travel to the Liberty Stadium on Tuesday evening to take on Swansea City in the fourth round of the EFL Cup and they will be hoping to get back to winning ways after losing to Huddersfield Town on Saturday.
Jose Mourinho’s men were well below their best at the weekend and deserved to be on the wrong end of a 2-1 defeat, but this is a competition the United boss always takes seriously and he will be desperate not to suffer back-to-back defeats.
In early team news, United are without Marcos Rojo, Paul Pogba, Marouane Felliani and Michael Carrick while Eric Bailly is rated at 50 per cent to recover from a knock and fellow centre-back Phil Jones is a minor doubt with a thigh injury.
Mourinho has some big decisions to make, with Luke Shaw, Daley Blind and Matteo Darmian all potentially coming into the defence with Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Marcus Rashford also returning to the starting line-up.
United’s injury problems have let them relatively short in some key areas, meaning it should be a strong side with the likes of Nemanja Matic, Juan Mata and Anthony Martial all starting again when a rest may have otherwise been on the cards.
With all that in mind here is how we expect United will line up against Swansea later this week:
