Manchester United will begin their defense of the FA Cup with a trip to the Emirates Stadium to face Arsenal on Sunday afternoon. Ruben Amorim is expected to make some changes to his starting line-up tomorrow.
Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United defeated Man City in the FA Cup final in May 2024, with United academy graduates, Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo scoring the goals for the Red Devils to secure the victory at Wembley.
Ruben Amorim will now lead Manchester United out tomorrow for the third round of the FA Cup, replacing Erik ten Hag, who won the trophy for the Red Devils 8 months ago.
Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal defeated Manchester United 2-0 on their last visit to the Emirates Stadium in December 2024, with the two goals coming from the corner. Man United has improved their performances since they last faced the Gunners and we are expecting a different game on Sunday afternoon.
Manchester United predicted XI vs Arsenal.
Ruben Amorim revealed during his press conference on Friday afternoon that Altay Bayındır will be starting in goal ahead of Andre Onana. The Turkish goalkeeper, who has been linked with a move away from Old Trafford has been given yet another opportunity to prove himself against a good Arsenal side.
Leny Yoro, who started from the bench in the last game against Liverpool, could return to the starting line-up on Sunday, replacing Lisandro Martinez. Ruben Amorim could be looking to start his tallest defenders due to Arsenal’s threat from the set-piece. Harry Maguire, De Ligt, and Leny Yoro could be in line to start for Manchester United tomorrow.
Kobbie Mainoo and Manuel Ugarte could keep their places in the starting line-up after an amazing performance against Liverpool. In attack: Amad, Bruno, and Hojlund could start for the Red Devils.
United predicted XI vs Arsenal:
Bayındır, De Ligt, Yoro, Maguire, Dalot, Mazraoui, Ugarte, Mainoo, Bruno, Amad, Hojlund.
