Zirkzee To Start, Fletcher On The Bench | 3-4-2-1 Manchester United Predicted Lineup Vs Wolves

Manchester United will welcome Wolverhampton Wanderers at Old Trafford this Tuesday night as they look to secure a good result at home in the Premier League. The Red Devils managed to earn a solid 1-0 win over Newcastle United recently, which should give them a ton of confidence ahead of this game.

Ruben Amorim will set his men up in a 3-4-2-1 formation and is expected to make one tweak to his first team for this clash. Joshua Zirkzee could get a chance to play from the start of this game.

Defence

Senne Lammens will feature in between the sticks for Man United after he kept a clean sheet in his last outing.

Amorim could opt for a back three of Lisandro Martinez, Ayden Heaven and Luke Shaw once again as they focus on keeping the opposition at bay during the game. All three of them managed to impress against Newcastle and will be eager to keep their good form going this week.

Leny Yoro and Tyrell Malacia will provide cover for the defensive positions on the bench.

Midfield

Casemiro and Manuel Ugarte will anchor the midfield for Man United as they look to win the 50-50 battles at the centre of the park.

Diogo Dalot will try to catch the eye on the right flank, while Patrick Dorgu looks to give a good account of himself on the other side as the left-sided wide player. Both of them will be instructed to get in behind the Wolves backline at every chance they can get.

Mathues Cunha and Joshua Zirkzee will operate as the attacking midfielders for Man United as they try to shoulder most of the creative burden in the final third.

Both Jack Fletcher and Tyler Fletcher will be named on the bench as they wait for their chance to make an impact in the second 45 minutes if needed.

Attack

Benjamin Sesko will lead the charge for the Red Devils up top. He would be eager to get his name on the scoresheet versus Wolves after failing to do so last weekend.

Shea Lacey will make up the numbers on the bench and might come on to influence the game in the latter stages if required.
