Recall that the Erik ten Hag-led team defeated Crystal Palace 3-0 in the previous phase of the Carabao Cup, and they will be looking for another win over Newcastle United on Wednesday night in a bid to progress to the next phase of competition.
Team News:
Just like the situation against Manchester City, Manchester United will be missing Luke Shaw (muscle), Amad Diallo (knee), Tyrell Malacia (knee), and Lisandro Martinez (foot) on Wednesday. Meanwhile, Jadon Sancho has been isolated from the main group of players for two months.
Casemiro and Aaron Wan-Bissaka were not declared fit to face Manchester City, but there’s hope that they may recover in time for the match against Newcastle. Ten Hag is open to rotating under-performing players.
Raphael Varane, Sergio Reguilon, Mason Mount, Alejandro Garnacho, and the now-healthy Kobbie Mainoo could provide some fresh options. However, after choosing Andre Onana against Palace, Ten Hag appears inclined to stick with the Cameroonian rather than Altay Bayindir.
Manchester United’s possible lineup vs Newcastle United:
Onana; Dalot, Varane, Maguire, Reguilon; Amrabat, Eriksen; Antony, Mount, Garnacho; Hojlund.
Kickoff Time:
The EFL Carabao Cup will begin at exactly 9 PM (Nigerian Time) on Wednesday…CONTINUE READING>>
